Delta Connection will expand international jet service between the Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) hub in Cincinnati and Montreal, Canada, effective Nov. 27, 2002. Delta Connection carrier Comair will operate one additional nonstop, round-trip flight with the Bombardier CRJ regional jet.

The new schedule will increase Delta Connection service between Cincinnati and Montreal to five round-trip flights a day. Customers traveling to Delta’s hub at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport have a convenient choice of 530 daily flights to 115 domestic and international destinations.

Known for its convenience, comfort and speed, the CRJ carries passengers in a two-by-two seating arrangement; every seat is an aisle or window, with no middle seats. The plane can cruise at a speed of 530 mph at altitudes as high as 41,000 feet, and is recognized as the quietest commercial jet aircraft in the world.
