Delta to Durango

In launching the service, Delta Connection joins United Express, and US Airways as service providers to the western Colorado resort town. United Express flies out of Denver (DEN), and US Airways Express from Phoenix (PHX).
From July 1, there will be two daily Delta Connections nonstops on the year-round Salt Lake City to Durango route, both via Canadair Regional Jet.
What brings travelers to Durango? Depending on the season - golf, cross-country or downhill skiing, train rides on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, and year-round access to Mesa Verde National Park.
