Delta to expand Caribbean service from New York

By Gay Nagle Myers
Delta will expand its service from New York (LaGuardia and JFK) to 10 destinations in the Caribbean, Bermuda and Florida, effective later this year and early 2013.

New from LaGuardia is a daily flight to Bermuda, effective April 8, 2013, and a daily flight from JFK to St. Maarten, Dec. 15.

Seasonal service will expand to a daily flight to Dec. 15 from LaGuardia to Nassau, JFK to Montego Bay and JFK to Aruba.

On Feb. 14, daily service from JFK to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, goes into effect.

Effective Dec. 15, Delta will offer two daily flights from LaGuardia to Sarasota, Fla., and a new daily flight JFK to Fort Myers, Fla.

The carrier will add a fourth daily flight from LaGuardia to Fort Myers, a fifth daily flight La Guardia to Miami, a fifth daily flight from LaGuardia to Tampa and a second daily flight from JFK to Tampa, also on Dec. 15.

Delta is adding 100 new flights to 26 new destinations this summer out of LaGuardia and investing $160 million to modernize two terminals at the airport and construct a new walkway connecting the facilities.

Currently under way at JFK is a $1.2 billion program to expand Terminal 4, where Delta will add nine new gates. The facility is slated to open next spring.
