Delta will fly Salt Lake City to Flagstaff twice daily starting June 2027

Delta will start nonstop service between Salt Lake City and Flagstaff, Arizona, on June 7, 2027. The route runs twice daily, all year, according to Delta's Oct. 1 announcement.

SkyWest will fly it for Delta Connection on a CRJ-550, which Delta describes as having a premium configuration. From Flagstaff, Delta says Sedona is about 50 minutes by car and the Grand Canyon's South Rim about 90. The airline also pitches Flagstaff itself, for its historic downtown, year-round outdoor recreation and dark skies for stargazing.

Part of a bigger push from SLC#

Flagstaff is the third new western leisure route from Salt Lake City this year. Santa Rosa/Sonoma County starts Oct. 6, and Monterey follows on Dec. 19, the same day Delta launches Los Angeles–Monterey. Delta says it runs 270 peak-day departures from SLC to more than 100 destinations, more than all other airlines at the airport combined. Long-haul flights include Amsterdam, London, Paris and Seoul. Delta describes itself as the airport's largest global premium carrier.

The three new routes share a pattern: small western airports with outdoor draws, flown on regional jets from a hub that already has the connections. Santa Rosa opens the Sonoma wine country, Monterey the Central Coast, and Flagstaff the Arizona high country.

Before you board#

Salt Lake City has two Delta Sky Clubs, and Delta's release makes a point of the newer one.

The Concourse B Club opened on Oct. 27, 2025. At nearly 34,000 square feet and 600 seats, it's the second-largest in Delta's network, with airfield views, a wraparound bar and design cues taken from Utah's mountains, lakes and caverns. Delta's opening announcement listed nine soundproof phone booths, a fresh-food buffet, a "dirty soda" bar in the local style, and a digital wall showing Utah landmarks. You'll find it near gate B26, right where the tunnel from Concourse A comes out. It runs 5:45 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. and rates 4.7 with our users. One gap: it has no showers.

The Concourse A Club is older, from 2020, and smaller at about 450 seats. It makes up for that with six showers and an outdoor Sky Deck, and it opens an hour earlier, at 4:45 a.m. Our users rate it 4.5. If you're coming off an overnight flight from Europe or Asia and connecting to Flagstaff, this is the one to use.

Both clubs follow Delta's standard rules. Members and Amex Platinum or Delta Reserve cardholders can bring up to two guests at $50 each, or immediate family, and need a same-day Delta ticket. Delta One passengers get in but can't bring guests.

How I'd pick a club#

If you have time and a choice, here's how the two compare in our directory:

• Concourse B: 600 seats, no showers, opens 5:45 a.m., rated 4.7. Best for food, coffee and views.
• Concourse A: 450 seats, six showers, outdoor deck, opens 4:45 a.m., rated 4.5. Best for an early departure or a shower.

Salt Lake City itself scores well with our users, at 4.0 overall, after its 2020 rebuild. Concourse A rates 3.9 and Concourse B 3.8, so the walk between them through the tunnel is the main complaint rather than either concourse.

Who can use a Sky Club#

Entry to either club depends on how you're flying. Our Delta Sky Club page lists the full set of routes in: a paid membership, the Delta SkyMiles Reserve or Reserve Business cards from American Express, the Amex Platinum card, Delta One tickets, or SkyMiles Diamond Medallion status when the member picks club access as a Choice Benefit. SkyTeam Elite Plus members on international itineraries also qualify. Basic Economy fares don't.

On the Flagstaff flight itself, a Delta Connection CRJ-550 carries no Delta One cabin, so a first-class seat on this route won't get you into the club on its own. Plan on one of the other routes in.

Delta One passengers are a special case: the Delta One ticket itself opens the club door, but with no guests. Immediate family can come in with a member or cardholder instead of the two paid guests.

At the other end#

Flagstaff Pulliam Airport has no lounge in our directory, and Delta's release doesn't mention one. The CRJ-550's premium layout is the closest thing to a ground upgrade on this route, and the 90-minute drive to the South Rim starts as soon as you land. If you're heading to Sedona, the airport sits at the top of the hill above Oak Creek Canyon; allow a bit more than Delta's 50-minute estimate in summer traffic.

Check your concourse#

The two Salt Lake clubs are a walk apart through the central tunnel, so check your gate before deciding which Club to head to. Flagstaff is a regional flight, and Delta Connection departures move between concourses, so the gate on your boarding pass matters more than habit. See our Delta Air Lines page for the airline's other hubs and lounges.
