Delta is making aviation history with a brand-new route across the Pacific. ✈️🇺🇸🇵🇭

Starting March 28, 2027, Delta will become the only US airline flying nonstop between Los Angeles and Manila—a route no American carrier has ever operated before.

The service will begin three times a week before expanding to daily flights in June.

The move also ends Philippine Airlines’ longtime monopoly on nonstop flights between the two cities and gives Southern California’s huge Filipino community another direct way to reach the Philippines.

Delta will operate the route with its flagship Airbus A350-900.

It’s also something of a comeback.

Delta previously served Manila through Tokyo and Seoul but suspended the route during the pandemic.

This marks its first-ever nonstop service from the US to the Philippine capital.

The new flight is part of Delta’s bigger push to turn Los Angeles into its main gateway to Asia, with more long-haul expansion already underway.
