Delta announces new Boston–Nice route for summer 2026

Travellers from the French Riviera will gain easier access to the United States when Delta launches a new seasonal route between Nice and Boston in May 2026, strengthening transatlantic links from the Côte d’Azur.

From 17th May 2026, Delta will operate three weekly flights between Boston Logan International and Nice Côte d’Azur Airport using its modern A330-900neo aircraft. The route will run seasonally through the summer and will complement Delta’s existing services to Nice from Atlanta and New York JFK.

Expanding Delta’s European network

The announcement comes as part of a wider expansion of Delta’s transatlantic operations. A daily service from Boston to Madrid will begin on 16th May 2026, while seasonal flights to Barcelona and Milan will resume earlier than planned, starting on 7th and 16th May respectively.

Nice among Boston Logan’s milestones

According to Massport CEO Rich Davey, the inclusion of Nice marks a significant development for Boston Logan International Airport. “We appreciate our partnership with Delta and are thrilled about their plans to grow their operations at Boston Logan with these new offerings to Spain and France, including Nice which will be our 60th international destination,” he said.

Enhanced passenger experience

The new routes coincide with Delta’s ongoing investment at Boston Logan. The airline recently opened a Delta One lounge on Concourse E, which is connected to its Sky Club unveiled in 2023. Together, these facilities are designed to elevate the travel experience for both business and leisure passengers.

More choices still to come

Delta has also engaged customers in shaping its network expansion. Last month, members of its SkyMiles programme voted on a potential new European destination for 2026, choosing between Malta, Ibiza and Sardinia. The winning choice will be revealed later this month, further broadening the airline’s reach across the Mediterranean.
