Delta Air Lines will begin operating a new daily flight between Philadelphia and Los Angeles next summer.

The airline will debut the nonstop route between Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on June 7, officials said in an announcement last week. Tickets are already available for purchase.

The addition comes as Delta said it was also adding or increasing flights to LAX from several other destinations. Delta is PHL’s third-largest carrier by passenger volume, having carried nearly 2 million passengers through the airport in 2025. It currently offers nonstop service from PHL to five U.S. cities.

PHL’s largest carrier, American Airlines, also offers several daily nonstop flights to Los Angeles.

The airport is in the midst of a nearly $2 billion renovation, having spent significant amounts in recent years on upgrades to bathrooms, landscaping, painting, and more.

The airport has nonetheless continued to rank poorly in a prominent traveler satisfaction survey: Last week, JD Power said that for the sixth year in a row, PHL received the lowest score among large U.S. airports in its annual passenger satisfaction rating.
