Delta is getting bigger in Texas: five new nonstops from Austin to business and leisure hotspots

Delta continues to position itself as the airline of choice for customers traveling to and from Austin with the introduction of five new routes from the Texas capital. Beginning in March 2025, Delta will add daily nonstop service to Panama City, Florida (ECP). In addition, the airline will add new, nonstop flights to Indianapolis (IND), Memphis (MEM), San Francisco (SFO) and Tampa (TPA), giving Austin customers more options than ever before.

“Delta has signaled its commitment to Austin, and these new routes and the 55 peak day departures planned for summer 2025 reaffirm that,” said Joe Esposito, Delta’s SVP – Network Planning. “This is in addition to the already 20% increase in seat capacity we deployed in April, connecting Austin to new destinations in major business and leisure markets both within Texas and out of state – and beyond through our global network.”

“We continue to listen and respond to what Austin needs as it grows, and we have a dedicated enterprise sales team ready to get all customers to, from and through this critical technology and business destination,” said Scott Santoro, VP -Sales .

Beginning March 9, customers can enjoy nonstop service to Panama City (ECP), perfect for a spring break to the white-sand beaches of the Florida Panhandle. This daily flight is operated by Delta Connection carrier SkyWest on an Embraer ERJ-175 equipped with First Class, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin. This flight joins the recently announced Austin to New Orleans (MSY) service, which launches February 27, just in time for Mardi Gras and Spring Break.

Delta’s service from Austin to Memphis – the only direct connection between the two cities – and Indianapolis begins May 7, offering seamless connections to two major business and cultural travel destinations. Customers traveling to Memphis will have quick access to iconic Beale Street and can decide for themselves which city has the best barbecue, while the route to Indianapolis offers additional options for business travel. These new routes are not only popular with business travelers, but also provide better connectivity for customers in Memphis and Indianapolis looking to travel to Austin. Both daily flights are operated by Delta Connection carrier SkyWest on an Embraer ERJ-175 equipped with First Class, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin.

On June 8, Delta will complete its latest expansion with new, nonstop service to San Francisco (SFO) and Tampa (TPA). The Austin-San Francisco route will unite two of the nation’s largest and most influential technology and innovation cities. Meanwhile, the Austin-Tampa route will provide Austin customers with more ways to access Florida’s beautiful Gulf Coast and one of the nation’s growing business destinations.

These daily flights are operated on Delta’s state-of-the-art Airbus A220-300 aircraft, equipped with First Class, Delta Comfort+ and Main Cabin. The A220-300 aircraft is arranged in a 2×3 configuration, which means there are 50% fewer middle seats. In addition, the aircraft has large windows and extensive luggage compartments. SkyMiles customers traveling on this aircraft will also have access to fast, free onboard Wi-Fi. Along with in-flight entertainment in the backseat, this aircraft is perfect for business travelers who want to be productive, as well as customers who want to sit back and enjoy more than 1,000 hours of entertainment content.

Last year, Delta positioned Austin as a key gateway to facilitate connections to its extensive network. With nonstop flights to all of Delta’s major hubs, Austin-area travelers are just one connection away from destinations around the world. Delta is also able to connect customers in Latin America, Europe, Africa and Asia to the vibrant and fast-growing technology hub.
