Delta Introduces Three New International Routes to Sun-Soaked Destinations from Minneapolis-Saint Paul Posted on January 20, 2024July 12, 2024 By Travelworldwide Looking to spend long, lazy days soaking up the sun on a hot, sunny beach? This update is just for you! There’s nothing better than a non-stop flight—no hassle, no worrying about connections or lost baggage. Most people agree it’s worth paying a bit extra for. That’s why it’s great news that Delta is launching three new non-stop international flights to sunny destinations from Minneapolis-Saint Paul. Here’s what you need to know: **Aruba** Starting December 20, 2024, Delta will offer new twice-weekly flights from Minneapolis-Saint Paul to Aruba. These flights will operate on Fridays and Sundays, making it perfect for a weekend getaway if you’re short on time. But if you have more vacation days, consider staying for a full week—there’s so much to see and do. Aruba is famous for its stunning white-sand beaches and turquoise waters, perfect for hours of relaxation. If you can pull yourself away from the beach, visit Arikok National Park with its rugged, desert-like landscape, ideal for hiking, jeep rides, or exploring natural caves. For a city vibe, head to Oranjestad, Aruba’s capital, known for its vibrant Dutch-inspired architecture and great shopping and museums. **St. Maarten** For the first time, you can fly directly from Minneapolis-Saint Paul to St. Maarten starting December 19, 2024. This route will operate twice a week on Thursdays and Saturdays. St. Maarten is renowned for its beautiful beaches, especially Maho Beach, famous for its proximity to Princess Juliana Airport’s runway, where it feels like planes are landing right over your head. For a quieter experience, Grand Case Beach offers a long, expansive coastline away from the crowds. Food lovers will be thrilled to know that St. Maarten is dubbed the “Culinary Capital of the Caribbean,” offering everything from traditional dishes like conch and dumplings to high-end steak houses. However, be prepared for higher food prices, as most items are imported, making them 20-30% more expensive than in the U.S. **Mazatlan, Mexico** Delta is also launching flights from Minneapolis-Saint Paul to Mazatlan three times a week starting December 21, 2024. This route offers a new perspective on Mexico’s Pacific Coast. Mazatlan is less crowded than Cancun and offers better value. It boasts beautiful beaches and a rich history with plenty of cultural attractions. The Centro Histórico, or Old Town, is a must-visit, featuring the Teatro Ángela Peralta and the Immaculate Conception basilica. Mazatlan is also known as Mexico’s big game fishing capital, making it a great destination for fishing enthusiasts. Blog
