The new route will use an Airbus A330-200, which offers 34 lie-flat seats with direct-aisle access in Delta One, 32 in Delta Comfort+ and 168 seats in the main cabin.
Delta VP-New York Henry Kuykendall said the new route to the African continent “joins existing service from JFK to Dakar and Accra, and follows new transatlantic routes to Lisbon, Berlin and Glasgow that began this spring.”

Atlanta-based Delta flies to four African cities: Accra, Ghana; Dakar, Senegal; and Johannesburg, South Africa; in addition to Lagos, where Delta will mark its 10th anniversary of service in December.
“Nigeria has been a strategically important market for Delta over the past 10 years and is a mainstay in our African network,” Delta SVP-transatlantic Dwight James said. “As we look ahead to the next decade, we are improving the product offering with the A330 and increasing the number of seats from Lagos.”
