Delta Air Lines Is Adding More Daily Nonstop Flights to Turks and Caicos

Since the pandemic, arguably no destination has seen bigger growth than Turks and Caicos, where tourism continues to thrive and the destination’s Q score continues to rise.
Surging demand means more flights, and that’s exactly what’s happening with Delta Air Lines out of its biggest hub: Atlanta’s Hartfield Jackson International Airport.
Beginning next winter, Delta will be ramping up its Atlanta-Providenciales service from one to two daily flights, Caribbean Journal has learned.
That’s a significant boost, and it will be running for most of the peak winter tourism season: January 6 through April 12. In all, that means 97 additional flights during the period.
On a seat basis, depending on the aircraft Delta is using, that could mean nearly 20,000 additional seats to the island.
What about prices? You can find fares on Delta from Atlanta to Turks and Caicos nonstop for about $749 in June, according to Google Flights data. That’s in Delta’s entry-level fare class.
Where else does Delta fly from to Turks and Caicos? You can take the carrier nonstop from US cities including Minneapolis, Detroit and New York.
Where to check in right now in Turks and Caicos? We recently stayed at the Ambergris Cay resort, just off the coast of Providenciales, and were thoroughly impressed.
