Delta Airlines is set to offer its most extensive international schedule to date this summer, with travelers eagerly planning trips to a range of exciting locations. As Memorial Day approaches, Delta has released its second annual list of the most-searched international destinations, providing a snapshot of where customers are looking to travel from May through August 2024.

The top 10 list reveals that U.S. flyers are seeking a mix of classic favorites and new experiences, with Athens leading the pack, experiencing a remarkable 248% increase in searches from the previous year. London, Paris, and Rome remain perennial favorites, while Dublin, Barcelona, and Vancouver are new entrants to the list.

These most-searched international destinations have seen a surge of more than 150% in searches from 2023, indicating a strong desire for overseas travel. This comes on the heels of Delta's 11 highest sales days in its history, all occurring in 2024, showing that international travel demand is at an all-time high.

On the domestic front, Delta's most-searched summer destinations outside its hubs include Las Vegas, Orlando, Miami, and Honolulu, signaling a strong preference for sunny locations and cities hosting major sporting events.

Delta's comprehensive summer schedule, spanning over 290 destinations in more than 50 countries, also features new non-stop services to Venice, Tulum, and Naples, set to begin in May. For those looking to book their summer getaways, Delta offers an elevated vacation experience through its Delta Vacations program, where customers can earn miles and use them to pay for part or all of their vacation package.

Delta's list of the most-searched destinations for summer 2024 offers a glimpse into the travel trends and preferences that are set to shape the coming season, showcasing the airline's commitment to catering to a wide range of travel desires and experiences.
