In a major turnaround from years of criticizing government-subsidized Gulf carriers, Delta Air Lines is further deepening its ties with a new, state-run airline. On Monday, Delta announced a new nonstop route between Atlanta and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, set to begin in October 2026. The 7,000-mile flight - the first-ever by a US airline - will be operated with Delta's premium-heavy Airbus A350-900 featuring business class, premium economy, and coach.
