Tulum, Q.R. — Delta Airlines has announced it will cease offering the only flight it has left into Tulum starting May 2027. The airline also stated the possibility of reinstating the Atlanta to Tulum flight on a seasonal-only basis toward the end of that year.
The direct Atlanta to Tulum flight is the only route currently served by Delta Airlines into the Tulum International Airport. In April 2025, the airline canceled its scheduled flights from Detroit and Minneapolis into Tulum, while maintaining the Atlanta to Tulum route.
“We routinely adjust our network to better suit demand. For customers affected by this schedule change, we are working to rebook them on alternative itineraries. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience,” Delta said at the time.
Delta said the Atlanta to Tulum flight, with seven weekly frequencies, will be suspended starting May 3, 2027, with the possibility of resuming it in November of the same year, but as a seasonal route.
“Delta flights to TQO (Tulum) from ATL (Atlanta) are scheduled to resume in November 2027. The service to Tulum will then operate on a seasonal basis,” the airline stated.
The airline announced that “daily scheduled flights between Atlanta and Tulum will operate from November 22, 2026, to May 2, 2027, with the exception of the period from January 12 to March 3, during which there will be no flights on Tuesdays or Wednesdays.
The Saturday-only service, scheduled from May 3, 2027, to July 31, 2027, will be permanently canceled,” the airline stated.
This latest blow to the Tulum International Airport adds to the growing list of canceled airlines. Delta is the latest to pull its flights from Tulum along with Aeromexico, Copa, American, Volaris, and United.
