Delta is doing a special flight for viewing the Great American Eclipse

The ever-popular transatlantic corridor between New York City and London-area airports sees millions of yearly passengers and represents one of the busiest routes in the world.

Over 14 million Americans will witness North America's total solar eclipse on April 8 while staying in a recreational vehicle, according to the RV Industry Association, after a surge in bookings and rentals.

The party of the month (year?) is underway in India, and the local airport is pulling out all the stops to cope.

Even as we travel around the globe, it’s easy to forget that our planet is part of a much larger celestial dance. Sure, we mark the orbit of the Earth around the Sun each year, but nothing reminds us that we are part of something much bigger than the experience of watching the Moon slide in front of the Sun during a solar eclipse. 

Indianapolis is the most-booked destination across all of North America on Airbnb for April 8’s total solar eclipse, according to the online homestay marketplace. However, over 45% of listings on the platform are still available to book in “Circle City,” and 40% are available across the path of totality in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

Visit California is reintroducing itself globally with a new $32.8 million tourism rebranding campaign – its first in a decade — on March 4. 

Delta Air Lines is offering a second special path of totality flight ensuring travelers will be able to view the 2024 solar eclipse from the sky after the first flight, DL1218, sold out in under 24 hours. 

If you missed your chance to book Delta’s special flight to view the eclipse in the path of totality, there is some good news. Delta Air Lines has announced a second special flight, this time out of Dallas Fort Worth (DFW). Here are the details on how to view this unique experience.

Delta Air Lines added a second flight to view the total solar eclipse from 30,000 feet after the first flight the airline announced sold out in less than 24 hours.

Many astronomy events will grace the sky this year, but the total solar eclipse is hands down the highlight for those even marginally interested in celestial happenings. On April 8, 2024, the total solar eclipse will cross North America, and many are trying to get in on the action (though the options for where to stay along the path of totality is already limited).

Solar eclipses are rare events. North America, however, has been blessed with two in quick succession: one in 2017, and another that will happen on April 8, 2024. The first stopped people across the country who sat in awe in the path of totality. The latter will be even more accessible for people in the United States, with a long stretch of totality from the Southwest to New England.

If you missed your chance last week at a seat on Delta Air Lines' solar eclipse flight, you may want to head right back to the airline's booking site.
