Delta Air Lines has officially ceased its seasonal service between New York's JFK Airport and London Gatwick Airport (LGW) as of November 18, 2025. This move, which was first confirmed by the airline on September 7, 2025, marks the end of a route that was reinstated in 2023 after a 15-year break. The withdrawal is part of a larger trend of reduced competition on the JFK-LGW route. The decision impacts travelers in both the U.S. and the UK by reducing the number of direct, and potentially more affordable, flight options between New York and London. Delta's departure follows similar moves by other airlines, signaling a shift in transatlantic strategy and demand dynamics between the two major travel hubs. No specific market reaction to this finalization has been noted.
