Overview
- Delta announced Thursday that it will operate daily, summer‑seasonal nonstop flights between Austin‑Bergstrom (AUS) and Paris‑Charles de Gaulle (CDG) beginning March 27, 2027 using an Airbus A330‑900neo.
- The aircraft will feature Delta One suites, Premium Select, Comfort and Main Cabin seating and the service is scheduled to run through the IATA summer season with tickets reported likely to go on sale around August 15, 2026.
- City of Austin documents show Delta has committed to expanding its gate leases in the planned Concourse A from four to 15 and plans a larger Sky Club plus a Delta One lounge at AUS to support long‑haul operations.
- Delta frames the Paris route as part of a wider Austin build‑out that will add domestic flying and international connections, with plans to serve roughly 30 destinations and operate more than 70 peak‑day departures by summer 2027.
- The move makes Delta the only U.S. carrier to offer a nonstop from Austin to Europe, boosts local jobs through crew bases and lounges, and could change travel options and fares for Central Texas residents and businesses.
