The airline plans to launch daily service between Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS) and Tampa International Airport (TPA) on Oct. 26, according to Delta. The flight will operate on an Airbus A330-300 aircraft during the winter season.The new route will complement existing winter seasonal service between the Dutch city and nearby Orlando. In addition, Delta flies to Amsterdam year-round from Atlanta, Boston, Detroit, Minneapolis, New York, Portland, Salt Lake City, and Seattle. “By seamlessly linking Amsterdam’s vibrant international hub — Delta’s most-served airport in Europe — with Tampa Bay’s renowned beaches, Delta is offering customers a gateway to explore the best of Europe and America,” Matteo Curcio, Delta’s senior vice president for Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and India, said in a statement. “With our premium amenities and extensive global network, travelers will have a lot to enjoy during the winter travel season.” Each flight from Tampa will feature Delta’s first class cabin, Delta One, complete with a lie-flat bed and bedding made from recycled plastic bottles; Delta Premium Select; Delta Comfort+; and Main Cabin seats. Beyond Amsterdam, Delta is expanding its international flight network by bringing back nonstop flights from New York to Nigeria on Dec. 1, expanding nonstop service to Venice, and launching new service to Australia. In addition to Delta, Florida travelers can fly to Europe on the airline’s SkyTeam partners, including flights between Miami and Paris on KLM and Air France; flights from Miami, Orlando, and Tampa to London on Virgin Atlantic; and flights from Orlando to Manchester on Virgin Atlantic. The new flights come as Delta is changing how it classifies boarding groups, switching to a number-based system to make the boarding process more clear.
