Fresh off its new planned service from New York to the Caribbean, Delta Air Lines is resuming its routes from the Northeast.

Delta is relaunching five new seasonal routes to the Caribbean out of Boston this winter, including new weekly flights to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic; Nassau, The Bahamas; Turks and Caicos; Aruba; and Montego Bay, Jamaica.

All of the flights will begin service on Dec. 22, 2018.

Turks and Caicos.

“It’s thrilling to offer more connections between Boston and the Caribbean, a favorite destination of U.S. customers because of its beaches, culture and biodiversity,” said Agustin Durand, General Manager – Central America and Caribbean at Delta Air Lines. “Whether you prefer to tan in legendary beaches like Punta Cana, Eagle Beach, Taylor Bay and Junkanoo Beach, go river rafting in Martha Brae, or visit local museums and historic centers, we are thrilled to be able to connect our customers in Boston with these iconic Caribbean destinations.”

The relaunched flights come as Delta recently announced new flights from New York to four Caribbean destinations.

“We are committed to offering our Boston customers thoughtful service at every touch point, including excellent airport customer service, industry-leading operational reliability and two Delta Sky Clubs at Logan International,” said Charlie Schewe, Director – New England Sales at Delta. “We look forward to an outstanding schedule this winter for our Boston customers offering over 100 peak-day round-trip flights to more than 35 destinations.”
