AUSTIN, Texas – Today, Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) announced that AUS travelers will have more ways to fly nonstop to New Orleans, Louisiana starting February 2025. Delta Air Lines will launch twice-daily service, seven days a week beginning February 27, 2025 – a week prior to the world-renowned Mardi Gras celebration.

“This is another exciting expansion of Delta’s nonstop services in Central Texas,” said Ghizlane Badawi, AUS CEO. “The timing of this frequency increase is perfect for Austinites and Central Texans traveling to New Orleans for Mardi Gras and Spring Break. We can’t thank Delta enough for their continued investment into our community.”

This year-round service will be operated by SkyWest Airlines on behalf of Delta Air Lines, which recently opened their AUS crew base, on the 70-seat Embraer 175 aircraft. The Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) is one of 17 different nonstop destinations offered by the airline from Austin-Bergstrom.  Travelers can book their nonstop flight to New Orleans on Delta.com.
