The busy season for Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) is winding down, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look ahead to later in the year when it comes to flight options coming to and from the Fort Myers airport.

Good news. Travelers who use RSW are getting one more travel option for the 2025 holiday, and this will also likely please ski lovers.

Delta Air Lines is adding three new domestic routes on Dec. 20, including one between Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) in Fort Myers and Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), according to The Points Guy and verified by the airline.

All three of the new flights will run once a week, on Saturdays. There is no saver award availability on the routes so passengers using miles will need to pay Delta’s dynamic SkyMiles redemption rates, The Points Guy reported.

Tickets are available now.

Delta is one of 15 commercial airlines that serve travelers in Southwest Florida.

Where are the new Delta flights coming in December?

Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) — Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) in Fort Myers
New York City’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) — Eagle County Regional Airport (EGE) near Vail, Colorado
New York City’s LaGuardia Airport (LGA) — Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN) in Montana

What airplanes will Delta be using on the new flights?

Delta will deploy an Airbus A319 on the Utah-Fort Myers route and the New York-Montana one, and a Boeing 757-200 for the New York-Colorado flight.

Neither are the type of plane used in Delta Flight 4819 that flipped upside down at a Toronto airport in February, catching on fire and injuring 18 of the 80 people on board. That was a Bombardier CRJ900, operated by a regional airline owned by Delta.
