Delta is expanding its reach from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) with two new nonstop routes: daily service to Hong Kong (HKG) beginning June 6, 2026, and three daily flights to Chicago O’Hare (ORD) starting June 7, 2026. These additions underscore Delta’s continued investment in LAX as a premier coastal gateway for both international and domestic travel.
“Launching service to Hong Kong and Chicago from LAX strengthens our presence in two of the world’s most dynamic markets,” said Paul Baldoni, SVP of Network Planning. “As the largest global carrier at LAX, we’re continuing to invest in routes that matter to our customers and deliver the premium travel experience that they’ve come to expect from Delta.”
A dynamic fusion of tradition and modernity, Hong Kong attracts travelers with its iconic skyline, vibrant neighborhoods, and world-class shopping, dining, and cultural experiences. Delta’s new nonstop service provides direct access to this global city, unlocking more than 30 convenient one-stop connections to and from LAX.
In addition to catering to passenger demand, the new route significantly strengthens Delta’s cargo network, creating a vital freight corridor between two of the world’s strongest cargo markets. This launch enhances Delta’s ability to support global supply chains and deliver seamless and reliable logistics solutions between Asia and North America.
The new service to Chicago provides Angelenos quick access to the city’s manufacturing, insurance, and financial sectors and is tailored for both business and leisure travelers.
“As one of the world’s busiest airports, LAX is proud to welcome Delta’s new nonstop service to critical global hubs, Hong Kong and Chicago,” said Doug Webster. “These routes enhance our trans-Pacific and domestic reach while reflecting the strength of our partnership with Delta.”
Delta customers can enjoy upgrades throughout their journey with exclusive access to improved lounges and top-tier services that highlight the airline’s commitment to quality travel experiences.
