Delta's Tampa To Amsterdam Flights Go Year-Round
As someone who lived in Tampa growing up, I love to keep tabs on the airport, and how nicely it has grown over the years. Along those lines, as of late October 2024, Delta resumed transatlantic flights out of Tampa, though only for the winter season. There’s now an exciting update, as the airline has…

I know a hot girl from Tampa, so I have only good things to say about the city. I would like to fly with her from Tampa to Amsterdam.
@Ben: As it appears, it will be four times weekly in summer (daily in winter). Also WK to ZRH is not daily, not even in winter.
But I guess for a more leisure type of destination, this makes sense.
This is what you can do with solid fleet and network plans and robust JVs.
Since KL just announced SAN something added by Delta was certain to keep the JV in balance
The question is if this is part of new terminal facilities for DL at TPA
Martinair used to fly this route in the 1990s and maybe in the 2000s? Before it became a cargo airline wholly owned by KLM.
The only downside of the DL A330 is the very old configuration of biz class
KL’s 3-times weekly flight to AMS will secure Skyteams dominance in San Diego. LOLZ.
The config is perfectly acceptable, reverse herringbone is good enough.
The issue is poor maintenance. The seats are quite literally falling apart. The footrest cushions are peeling off and some seats are held together with duck tape.
In fact, I've noticed very poor upkeep even on their newer A330neos. The bathroom and suite doors are all getting stuck and it's super wonky. It's very alarming to have these kind of problems for such new aircraft.
DL launches new route: "This is what you can do with solid fleet and network plans and robust JVs."
UA launches new route: "disastrous attempt at massive expansion"
Maybe DL keeps the 767s around so that when people end up on a 332 or 333 instead of a 339 they can say "at least it's not the 767".
Delta will carry more passengers further on this one route on a year round basis than United will with all their narrow body seasonal less than daily routes. That is the point. Like American’s 2025 routes This is just a boring route between two existing large cities for Delta that will generate far more impact.
@Watson, Please don’t use normal logic or previous statements to attack my son. He’s very fragile when he’s proven wrong. It just goes over his head.
Did you do your chores Timothy?
I'm sure there are a lot of subsidies involved. But that aside, this may be a great use of a global upgrade certificate.
The French don't go to Tampa. French people are more drawn to Miami or Orlando because of Disney.
This is true of all Delta's fleet. I just got off an A320 from DFW to DTW. My seat didn't recline and the tray table had been removed. Instead of blocking the seat for passengers and moving me (on a paid first-class ticket), Delta just gave me the seat and refused to do anything besides moving me to a later DFW to DTW flight. They had one passenger who was upgraded from economy to first. They should have denied his upgrade, put me in his seat and not assigned anyone to the broken seat. Sadly, these kind of issues are happening all the times.
I am thrilled ! just learned this. My husband and family are from Holland and we travel TPA-AMS serveral times a year. Year 'round is going to be wonderful !
We have a booking on this flight in early February 2025 and we have purchased Delta Premium Select seats. These seats are apparently only available on the A330 900neo, so the type of aircraft appears to be changing into 2025.
you consistently say this but I never see what you see.
I swear you have the luck for finding the defective and broken
Only if Tampa had a Priority Pass lounge/restaurant. Used to have a restaurant but it left PP.
Love this. Too many international trips on 767's of various airlines. Ugh.
This is great news...im flying to Amsterdam in February...now I can fly them in summer to Europe
