Delta Air Lines Adds 14 New Flight Routes to Palm Springs, Orlando, Nashville, and More

Travelers have new flight options for winter getaways later this year.
Delta Air Lines introduced 14 new flight routes that include popular vacation destinations including Nashville; Orlando, Florida; and Palm Springs, California. Sun-seekers planning to visit Orlando will have new seasonal offerings from Grand Rapids, Michigan (GRR), Kansas City, Missouri (MCI), Nashville (BNA), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (PIT), and Indianapolis (IND). The routes will operate on Saturdays only between Dec. 20 and April 11, 2026. All of the flights will be operated on Embraer E175 aircraft.
Orlando has become a popular destination for families looking to explore the expansive resorts, such as the Four Seasons Resort and Waldorf Astoria Orlando. Orlando and the surrounding region are also home to theme parks such as Walt Disney World and Legoland Florida.
In addition to the Orlando routes, the Atlanta-based airline will also operate on Saturdays between Austin (AUS) and Palm Springs, California (PSP), with the service starting and ending on the same dates as the Orlando routes. The Coachella Valley, home to Palm Springs, La Quinta, and Indio, is home to a variety of hotels and experiences such as the newly renovated La Quinta Resort, Kimpton Rowan Palm Springs, and the newly opened Palm Springs Surf Club, which features seven-foot waves.
The airline will also begin new service between New York City's LaGuardia International Airport (LGA) and Huntsville, Alabama (HSV), on April 14.
Delta also recently announced several limited-time flight routes for college football fans. The airline will operate special sections as city to city flights for fans to easily catch their favorite games, such as a route from Austin (AUS), home of the Texas Longhorns, to Columbus, Ohio, home of the Ohio State Buckeyes for the Aug. 30 game. Other games include LSU at Vanderbilt on Oct. 18, Tennessee at Florida on Nov. 22, and LSU at Oklahoma on Nov. 29. A full listing of the college football routes is available on Delta's website.

TSA Begs Travelers to Stop Presenting a Costco Membership Card Instead of a Passport

Attention, Americans! Next time you fly, the folks at the Transportation Safety Administration have a simple reminder: no, your Costco Membership is not a valid form of ID. The bizarre reminder came days ago, amidst a renewed flurry of web traffic — and presumably some attempts at the security checkpoint — checking whether the almighty wholesale retail pass will get you to past the gate and onto your flight. "We love hotdogs and rotisserie chickens as much as the next person, but please stop telling people their Costco card counts as a REAL ID because it absolutely does not," the TSA implored on social media. The TSA is a legendarily flawed organization, notorious for subjecting untold millions of travelers to cumbersome security theater while accomplishing very little, but in this instance it was unquestionably correct: a Costco card will emphatically get you nowhere near an airplane at a US airport, and presenting it to airport security may well result in a situation that makes you wish you'd stayed home in the first place. The agency's truth bomb comes a month after the federal government finally carried out its years-long threat of requiring a REAL ID — a state ID authenticated along with legal proof of residence — to board even domestic flights. The looming mandate was established all the way back in 2005, and has consistently been pushed back by the government, at least until Trump's Project 2025-fueled crackdown on voting registration. The Costco debacle, on the other hand, has its roots in a nebulous internet rumor dating back to at least August, 2021. Among the earliest known claims that a Costco card can get you through TSA comes from an immigration-assistance website with occasional blogs on travel advice. A post titled "Costco Cards, and 11 Other IDs That Can Get You through Airport Security" — published on August 16th, 2021, according to metadata — lists the almighty piece of plastic as an acceptable supplement when going through airport security. "It is a photo ID, and can help you get through a TSA check," the blog advises. It's true that Costco cards have their owners' photos printed on them, but they are absolutely not an official form of ID, at least anywhere except Costco. "Costco is a reputed name, and everyone has heard of its membership program." (To be fair to the blog does caveat that "perhaps the Costco card alone is not enough.") The vague rumor only spiraled from there, with years' worth of social media posts piling up into a disinformation tornado on the topic. Now with dozens of local media outlets circulating the TSA-Costco debacle, maybe it's only a matter of time before some clever AI chatbot gets in on the fun.
