 “This new service by Delta continues to build momentum for ONT's recovery of passenger airline service as we climb out of the COVID-19 pandemic-caused traffic downturn,” said Mark Thorpe, ONT’s chief executive officer. “We believe we will continue to see airlines turn to ONT as they seek to profitably rebuild their flight schedules.”

Delta will serve the route with 76-seat Embraer 175 (Enhanced Winglets) jet aircraft operated by SkyWest DBA Delta Connection offering 12 First Class, 20 Comfort Class and 44 Main Cabin seats. Tickets are now available for purchase at delta.com.

Delta continues leading the industry in providing a safer, cleaner travel experience from check-in to baggage claim. Some of Delta’s health and safety measures include, but are not limited to:

Sanitizing all aircraft with electrostatic spraying before departure and extensive pre-flight disinfection of high-touch points throughout the aircraft interior.

Using state-of-the-art air circulation systems with HEPA filters that extract more than 99.99% of particles, including viruses.

Blocking all middle seats and limiting the number of customers per flight through Jan. 6, 2021.

Requiring face masks throughout the airport, in Delta Sky Clubs and on board the aircraft
