New Nonstop Flights Expanding for American Travelers: 8 Upcoming International Routes Set to Take Off Soon
This fall, U.S. travelers are in for a treat as several airlines announce new and resumed international routes, opening up a world of new possibilities.
One of the leading airlines, Delta Air Lines, is set to resume its direct route from New York-JFK to Buenos Aires, Argentina, starting October 27. The airline will also relaunch nonstop service between Los Angeles (LAX) and Shanghai (PVG) in June 2025, providing a convenient option for those planning fall travel. Additionally, Delta will begin nonstop flights from New York-JFK to Auckland, New Zealand, and launch a new route from Atlanta to Nice, France, starting in November.
Another exciting development comes from Norse Atlantic Airways, which will start an additional flight from London Gatwick to Bangkok on October 26, though this is not a direct U.S. route.
Meanwhile, American Airlines is expanding its South American network with a new route from Miami to Manaus, and United Airlines will start nonstop flights from Newark to Marrakech on October 24. JetBlue is also entering the transatlantic market with a new route from Boston to Amsterdam, beginning in October.
United Airlines will also launch direct flights from Los Angeles to Brisbane, offering U.S. travelers the opportunity to explore Australia.
These new routes provide opportunities for U.S. travelers to explore new destinations such as Jamaica and Rome. However, it is crucial for travelers to check any travel restrictions or visa requirements for their destination before booking a flight.
As more airlines enter long-haul markets, competition is heating up, leading to potential for competitive pricing. This means that travelers can expect affordable flights to these new destinations.
In addition to airlines, online travel platforms like Kayak, Booking.com, and Expedia offer a wide range of booking options for flights, hotels, and special accommodations. Good travel insurance is also essential for total peace of mind during trips, especially considering rising crime rates in certain American cities and the not-so-sunny truths that might make travelers reconsider booking a cruise.
Southwest Airlines is also adding a new Caribbean route from Baltimore to Montego Bay, Jamaica, adding to the list of exciting new options for U.S. travelers this fall. The launch of these new routes reflects airlines' confidence in the continued recovery of international travel.
As always, it is important for travelers to stay informed and plan their trips carefully to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey. Happy travels!
Tips for trip success could include researching travel restrictions and visa requirements for the destination, checking for competitive pricing on flights through platforms like Kayak, Booking.com, and Expedia, and investing in good travel insurance. Beyond airlines, consider exploring home-and-garden and lifestyle destinations by adding a stopover in Europe, such as on JetBlue's new route from Boston to Amsterdam, or United Airlines' new route from Newark to Marrakech.
