"I am excited to welcome Delta Air Lines' expanded summer seasonal service, now connecting Fairbanks to Salt Lake City and offering even more travel options for our community and visitors," said Alaska International Airport's director, Angie Spear, in a statement. "This new route enhances our connectivity and reaffirms Fairbanks' importance within Delta's network, building on the existing Seattle and Minneapolis routes."
Delta will boost its connections to Anchorage, increasing service from Detroit to Anchorage to once daily. It will deploy a Boeing 757 for the seven-hour flight.
Delta is not alone in ramping up flights to Alaska, as United Airlines also plans to resume its service from Dulles International Airport to Anchorage, adding to travel options for the peak summer season.
This past summer, United Airlines launched its inaugural service from Dulles International Airport to Anchorage and will resume these popular flights for the upcoming peak season - when most of the state has up to 24 hours of sunlight.
