Delta will relaunch nonstop service between Los Angeles (LAX) and Shanghai (PVG) in June 2025*, using its state-of-the-art Airbus A350 equipped with the latest onboard amenities. As customers traveling in Delta One can look forward to the new Delta One Lounge at LAX, all travelers will experience the completed airport upgrades that ensure a more comfortable and seamless journey.
Delta is bringing the premium lounge experience to West Coast customers with the opening of the Delta One Lounge at LAX.
“As the leading global airline at LAX, Delta remains committed to providing our Los Angeles customers with seamless access to destinations worldwide,” said Joe Esposito, Senior Vice President of Network Planning at Delta. “Our recent investment in the new Delta One Lounge and the broader airport improvements reflects our dedication to elevating every step of our customers’ journey— from the moment they arrive at the airport to their arrival at their final destination.”
With the return of Los Angeles-Shanghai service, Delta will operate 17 weekly flights between the U.S. and China, including existing routes from Detroit and Seattle.
An enhanced travel experience from Los Angeles
Delta continues to expand its presence at LAX, offering over 150 peak-day departures to nearly 60 destinations, including new and resumed services to Auckland, Paris, and Brisbane starting on Dec. 4.
Two Delta Network Planning team members provide an inside look at some of the decisions that shape where and when customers can fly.
