Thinking about grabbing lunch in New York City and being back home by bedtime? Starting June 7, travelers flying out of Huntsville International Airport will have twice as many chances to make it happen.

Delta Air Lines announced it will offer twice-daily nonstop flights between Huntsville and New York City’s LaGuardia Airport, giving passengers the option of a morning or evening departure and return.

The added frequency builds on Delta’s nonstop LaGuardia service that launched in 2025, marking the first direct connection between Huntsville and New York City. City and airport leaders have long called New York one of Huntsville’s top unserved markets.

The expanded schedule means more flexibility for business travelers looking to make a same day trip and for leisure travelers planning a weekend in the Big Apple.

Delta currently offers nonstop service from Huntsville to Atlanta, Detroit and New York City, with approximately 80 scheduled departures each week from HSV.

Airport officials have said nonstop access to major metro areas like New York is critical to supporting Huntsville’s growing business community and expanding tourism opportunities.

With two daily options to LaGuardia beginning in June, Rocket City travelers will have even more ways to swap barbecue for bagels, at least for the day.
