Delta flight to follow moon's shadow during upcoming solar eclipse

Delta flight to follow moon's shadow during upcoming solar eclipse

Tuesday, February 20, 2024 5:11 PM GMT

Delta will have a special flight following the path of totality from Austin to Detroit for the solar eclipse on April 8.

A rare total solar eclipse will sweep through about a 100-mile-wide swath of the U.S. on April 8, completely darkening skies for up to about four minutes along its path. 

While those on the ground will only get to see a total solar eclipse for a handful of minutes, a special Delta flight will give passengers a longer experience. 

Delta Flight 1218 will take off from Austin, Texas, at 12:15 p.m. CT, just as a partial solar eclipse gets underway. The flight is scheduled to land in Detroit at 4:20 p.m., just minutes before the partial eclipse comes to an end. 

Although Detroit is just outside the path of the total solar eclipse, the plane will generally follow the path of totality to its destination. Delta is using an A220-300 for the flight for its extra-large passenger windows. 

“This flight is the result of significant collaboration and exemplifies the close teamwork Delta is known for — from selecting an aircraft with larger windows to determining the exact departure time from Austin and the experiences at the gate and in the air,” said Eric Beck, managing director of domestic network planning. “Thanks to teams across the company, the idea of viewing a total eclipse from the air will become a reality for our customers.”
