Starting December 4, 2024, Delta will launch a seasonal route from Los Angeles to Brisbane, Australia, operating three times a week until March 28, 2025.
This route will operate on the Airbus A350-900 with four product experiences: Delta One Suites, Delta Premium Select, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin.
American Airlines recently announced a new 787-9 route to Brisbane from Dallas, and United Airlines currently serves Queensland from San Francisco, also with the 787-9 Dreamliner.
Brisbane will be Delta's second destination in Australia, complementing service to Sydney.
In winter 2022, Delta introduced a second frequency from LAX to Sydney and recently upgraded those flights to daily, giving customers access to Sydney via 14 flights per week.
Skyteam airline also launched daily service from LAX to Auckland, New Zealand, in October 2023 and thrice-weekly flights to Tahiti in December 2022.
“With this addition of Brisbane, Delta's upcoming winter schedule will offer our customers up to 17 weekly flights between the U.S. and Australia,” said Joe Esposito, Delta senior vice president of network planning.
“This marks our most extensive program to the South Pacific to date, and as we build our presence in the region, we know our customers will enjoy the enhanced experience Delta consistently delivers.”
