Delta Air Lines Planning To Open Minneapolis–St. Paul Airbus A350 Base In Early 2027

Delta Air Lines is planning to establish a new Airbus A350 base at its hub in Minneapolis–Saint Paul (MSP) with an anticipated opening date of early 2027. This strategic move will significantly expand Delta’s presence within the Minnesota airport, representing a substantial increase in operations compared to current levels. The airline anticipates that this expanded facility will enable Delta to develop seasonal long-haul flight routes from MSP. Furthermore, the introduction of the A350 fleet promises to enhance the modernization of Delta's existing transatlantic passenger aircraft. By establishing this dedicated base, Delta aims to bolster connectivity and improve service quality for customers traveling across Europe.
