Delta Airline to suspend New York-Lagos direct flights Oct 4

Delta Airline says it will suspend New York- JFK and Lagos effective October 4, 2022.

In a statement on Tuesday, the airline said the nonstop flight service would be halted to fit the ‘current demand environment’.

Delta, however, said its flight services from Lagos to Atlanta would offer onward connections to New York and other cities across the United States.

“Delta is suspending its nonstop service between New York-JFK and Lagos to fit the current demand environment,” the airline said.

“The airline continues to operate service between Lagos and Atlanta and offers onward connections to New York and other cities across the United States.

“Customers impacted by our suspended New York-JFK to Lagos service will be re-accommodated on Delta-operated flights or services operated by our joint venture partners. Delta remains committed to the Nigeria market.”
