Delta Announces New Route to Tulum, Mexico in 2024 - On Friday, Delta Air Lines announced a nonstop service to the popular destination will launch on March 28, 2024 from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL). The flight will operate from #Tulum’s yet-to-be-opened #TulumInternationalAirport, also known as  Felipe Carrillo Puerto International Airport (TQO) which is scheduled to open in Dec. 2023. Tickets will be available for purchase in Oct. 16, 2023. "We know Tulum-bound customers will enjoy the elevated experience Delta consistently offers — and now without a two-hour drive from #Cancun — as we grow our footprint in #Mexico and throughout the #Yucatan region,” #Delta’s SVP of Network Planning Joe Esposito said in a statement. Delta will use a Boeing 737-800 aircraft for the route, which can accommodate 160 passengers. The announcement of the new route comes a day after the airline shared a "record September quarter revenue and a double-digit operating margin," Thursday on its most recent earnings call, despite its announcement of changes to its SkyMiles program. Acknowledging in September that the changes may have gone "too far," Ed Bastian echoed the same sentiment in a CNBC interview on Thursday. "We're going to have to recalibrate," CEO Ed Bastian said. "We're going to have to find the best way to accommodate getting the service levels to where we need to be, at the same time making these modifications where people understand them better." https://lnkd.in/gSXGdc27 #centralamerica #mexico🇲🇽 #FranckRobert #PropertySquareLLC

Basically by end of 2023, we will still be at levels of 2013/14. 🤔 Number of flights performed by the global airline industry from 2004 to 2021, with forecasts until 2023  (in millions)

Delta - why are you doing this to your loyal customers? Ever since I can remember flying, I’ve made a conscious effort to use Delta as my primary travel option. Outside of convenience to Atlanta, the rewards were a big part of it, but as we’ve all seen, those too have become less valuable, whether through actual purchasing power or being able to use them. A last minute flight cancellation on my part drops me from being a Platinum member down to Silver despite a reasonable amount of domestic flights, one international flight and over $164,000 in personal card spend on my AmericanExpress Platinum card in 2023. I’m 3795 MQM’s from Gold status, which I unfortunately cannot purchase due to Delta policy. First world problems, I know, but still incredibly frustrating for me and many others. Delta’s profit jumped 60% at the end of 3rd Quarter…Q4 will most likely meet or exceed those numbers. That’s literally billions of dollars. With at least 20 trips scheduled this year, maybe it’s time to make a change to another airline as my primary? After all, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. #delta #AmericanExpress
