OREANDA-NEWS. Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) seasonal nonstop service between Zurich International Airport and New York’s John F. Kennedy airport will recommence on 12 June. The flight will operate daily throughout the peak summer season using a Boeing 767-300 aircraft with 209 seats and will complement the existing daily nonstop service between Zurich and Atlanta.

“We are delighted to see the return of our summer seasonal flight between Zurich and New York, offering customers more choice, nonstop convenience and onward connections to more destinations in the U.S. than any other carrier,” said Perry Cantarutti, Delta’s senior vice president of Europe, Middle East and Africa. “Demand on this route is high, particularly for our premium product, where our customers will see a number of new product and service enhancements onboard including a range of new in-flight amenities.”

Delta’s flight from Zurich features 35 seats in BusinessElite.  The aircraft is also equipped with Economy Comfort, Delta’s premium economy cabin product which provides four additional inches of legroom and 50 percent more recline than Delta’s standard Economy class seat, as well as priority boarding.
