Delta Revives Flights from Birmingham to LaGuardia

Delta Air Lines will resume nonstop flights to New York City, beginning June 7.

Daily service between Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (BHM) and LaGuardia Airport (LGA) will use a 76-seat CRJ-900 aircraft, the carrier said.

The flights will resume as New York is lifting many of its capacity restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“As the demand for travel is growing, we are happy that our customers will have more options and more convenience as they return to the skies and reconnect with friends and family,” Ronald Mathieu, Birmingham Airport Authority president and CEO, said.

Delta will offer nonstop service between Birmingham and Atlanta and Detroit, in addition to New York, for a total of 11 daily departures beginning in June.
