Delta to reduce Atlanta Mumbai nonstop frequency

January 21, 2009 Comments Off on Delta to reduce Atlanta Mumbai nonstop frequency 224 Views

Delta Airlines which recently commenced its Atlanta – Mumbai non-stop is feeling the pinch of the economic slowdown affecting India’s IT industry.

Effective March 29, it will reduce the frequency of its service from a daily to five flights a week.

The service will not operate on Tuesdays and Sundays ex-Atlanta, and Mondays and Wednesdays ex-Mumbai. In my opinion, it is a very sensible move. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are the slowest days of the week.

Service will continue to operate with the ultra long range Boeing 777-200LR.
