Delta ending Dayton flights to New York in September, adding service to Atlanta

Jun. 3—Delta Air Lines says that it is ending daily nonstop service from Dayton to LaGuardia Airport in New York City near in the end of this summer.
Delta launched the service at the Dayton International Airport three years ago, on June 6, 2022. The service to the 19th largest airport in the nation operates on a CRJ-900 aircraft that has 70 seats.
A Delta spokesperson said, "Delta routinely adjusts its network to meet demand. For any customers that are booked on flights that are impacted by a reduction, we will work to rebook them on an alternative itinerary. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience that schedule changes may cause."
When the service to LaGuardia ends on Sept. 7, the Dayton International Airport will have nonstop flights to 11 airports, said Melissa Riley Patsiavos, marketing and air service director for Dayton's aviation department.
Riley Patsiavos said Delta is going to add another daily route to Atlanta at the Dayton airport.
Delta says the route will run from Sept. 8 to Dec. 19, which will increase the number of "giant flights" between Dayton and Atlanta to five.
"Our daily service to ATL will increase to five daily trips and Delta's overall capacity from DAY will increase by 8%," Riley Patsiavos said.
She said many of the Dayton airport's airline partners still offer one-stop service to the New York City market, but not nonstop flights.
She also said United Airlines is increasing its capacity to Denver this June by upgrading to a larger aircraft.
The Dayton International Airport saw about 148,100 passenger boardings in the first quarter of this year, which is up 1.9% from the same period in 2024.
Delta accounts for slightly less than a quarter of the airport's passenger traffic. American Airlines represents nearly half of boardings, while United Airlines accounts for about 20%.
The Dayton airport has nonstop service to Atlanta, St. Pete-Clearwater, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, New York, Orlando, Philadelphia, Punta Gorda (Florida), and Washington D.C.

United flight from San Francisco to Rome makes emergency landing in Iceland

A United Airlines flight from San Francisco to Rome made an emergency landing in Iceland early Sunday after experiencing an onboard incident over the Atlantic Ocean. Flight UA507, a Boeing 777-200ER registered N76010, declared an emergency roughly eight hours into the flight. The aircraft had departed San Francisco International Airport at 5:03 p.m. local time Saturday and was cruising toward Europe when it suddenly descended to 21,000 feet and transmitted a squawk 7700 — an international distress code. The flight was diverted north and landed safely at Keflavik International Airport near Reykjavík around 8 a.m. local time. 'The 777 is descending through 10,000 feet,' a flight monitoring service reported shortly before touchdown. 'Based on its descent path and runway in use, the aircraft is aiming for a straight-in approach for Runway 01.' After landing, the plane vacated the runway and was towed to a remote stand in the airport's East Apron. The remainder of the flight to Rome was canceled. No injuries were reported among passengers or crew. As of Sunday morning, the cause of the emergency had not been disclosed. The aircraft, built in 1999, is more than 26 years old and part of United's legacy fleet of Boeing 777-200s.
