For Austin travelers dreaming of sipping an espresso at a café-lined street, indulging in a long lunch along the Seine and spending weekends exploring art galleries and gorgeous boutiques, getting to Paris, France is about to become much easier. Delta Air Lines will launch Austin’s first-ever nonstop service to Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG) on March 27, 2027, giving Central Texans a direct connection to the City of Light.

An elevated way to cross the Atlantic

The daily summer flights will operate aboard Delta’s Airbus A330-900neo, the airline’s flagship international aircraft, with four experiences ranging from luxury to main cabin seating. For those looking to travel with maximum comfort and style, Delta One offers fully lie-flat seats, privacy doors, luxury bedding and chef-curated meals paired with premium beverages. Delta’s new route is set to make international travel from Austin feel more seamless and a lot more enticing.

From Austin to Paris — and Beyond

The new route gives Austin travelers more than a direct ticket to Paris. Through Delta’s joint venture with Air France-KLM, passengers can connect onward from Paris to nearly 70 destinations across Europe, India and Africa.

Joe Esposito, Delta’s Executive Vice President – Chief Commercial Officer says, “Launching Austin’s first nonstop service to Paris is a defining milestone, but it’s just one part of our broader investment in the region. From expanded domestic flying to strong international connectivity through our partnership with Air France-KLM, we’re making it easier than ever for customers to connect from Central Texas to destinations around the world.”

Delta’s Corporate Communications team also reiterates that the announcement of this nonstop Paris route is just one part of a broader expansion of Delta’s Austin network, which includes:

  • A second daily Austin-San Jose flight beginning April 2027, offering more flexibility between two major tech hubs.
  • New daily nonstop service to San Diego beginning April 12, 2027.
  • Year-round nonstop service to Cancun.
