In late July 2026 Delta Air Lines announced that it will begin a nonstop Los Angeles‑Manila service on 28 March 2027, initially offering three weekly flights and expanding to daily operations by 7 June 2027. The airline highlighted the route’s four cabin classes, free Wi‑Fi for SkyMiles members, and its expected boost to tourism, business travel and economic ties between the United States and the Philippines. A few weeks later, in early August 2026, Delta revealed a second Pacific addition: a daily nonstop Seattle‑Tokyo Narita flight slated for late March 2027. Operated with an Airbus A330‑900neo, the service restores Delta’s Narita link after a seven‑year hiatus and creates a second daily Seattle‑Tokyo connection alongside its existing Seattle‑Haneda flights. The move is aimed at capturing more trans‑Pacific traffic and strengthening Delta’s competitive position against other carriers serving the Tokyo market. Together, the announcements illustrate Delta’s broader strategy to expand its Pacific network in 2027, targeting both leisure and business travelers while positioning the airline against regional rivals. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-07: Delta Air Lines to resume Seattle‑Tokyo Narita flights in 2027 Delta will resume daily Seattle‑Tokyo Narita flights in March 2027 using an Airbus A330‑900neo, ending a seven‑year gap and adding competition with Alaska, JAL and ANA. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/delta-air-lines-to-resume-seattletokyo-narita-flights-in-2027 ### 2026-07-23: Delta Air Lines launches nonstop Los Angeles–Manila service starting March 2027 Delta starts nonstop LAX‑Manila flights on 28 Mar 2027, expanding to daily service in June; the route aims to boost tourism and travel links between the US and the Philippines. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/delta-air-lines-launches-nonstop-los-angelesmanila-service-starting-march-2027 --- Cite as: Delta Air Lines Pacific route expansion.
