The additional departure times will allow for expanded business or leisure-travel day trip options, officials said. It also reflects increased demand from Colorado Springs travelers.
" Delta Air Lines continues to be a phenomenal partner, and we could not be happier to add additional service to one of their hubs," Greg Phillips, director of aviation for the Colorado Springs Airport, said in the release. "This bolstered capacity to Salt Lake City brings numerous connecting opportunities on Delta. We're thrilled to get this news about expanded service."
This is the third instance of additional routes offered from Colorado Springs Airport to various cities across the country — and now Cancun, Mexico — officials have announced in the last three months.

After an absence of more than six years, Las Vegas-based Allegiant Air is resuming service at Colorado Springs Airport with three new routes starting early next year.
In late October, the municipal airport announced nonstop seasonal Saturday service to Cancun through Southwest Airlines. The weekly service will begin June 7, the first scheduled international route the airport will serve. The flights are slated to run through the summer.
In November, the airport announced Las Vegas-based Allegiant Air will resume service at Colorado Springs Airport with three new routes beginning Feb. 12. Allegiant returns to the local airport after previously ending service there in 2018.
