About
Delta flight tracking
Delta is one of the "big three" US carriers, with hubs in Atlanta (the world's busiest airport), JFK, Detroit, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, and Seattle. They operate extensive domestic networks plus transatlantic flights to Europe.
For UK families tracking US-bound relatives, Delta's JFK Terminal 4 is a major hub. "Landed at JFK" means 30-40 minutes minimum before they exit the terminal. Customs and immigration queues at JFK can extend this further.
Delta's domestic flights operate throughout the day. If you're in the UK tracking someone flying Atlanta to Los Angeles, the timezone difference means they might land at what feels like 2am your time. A text alert means you wake up knowing they arrived.
Delta codeshares extensively with Virgin Atlantic on transatlantic routes.
