Delta Air Lines is adding a direct flight between Boston and a Midwestern city in 2026.

Delta will begin daily nonstop service between Boston and Madison, Wisconsin, on June 7, 2026, the airline announced on Friday.

The news comes a little more than a week after American Airlines announced it will fly nonstop between Boston and Madison, Wisconsin as part of a 15-route expansion next summer. The American route begins on June 18, 2026.

No airlines currently offer a direct flight between the cities, according to the Boston Business Journal. Travelers will fly to Dane County Regional Airport in the capital city of Wisconsin.

Dane County Executive Melissa Agard wrote on social media after the American announcement that she’s excited that daily nonstop flights between Boston and Madison are returning.

“Boston is a national hub for higher education, health care, life sciences, technology, and innovation. Sound familiar? Those strengths align closely with what makes Dane County thrive,” Agard wrote.

The Delta flight will depart Boston at 2 p.m. and arrive in Madison at 3:53 p.m. The return flight will depart Madison at 4:45 p.m. and arrive in Boston at 8:19 p.m.

The Delta route will operate once daily, as will the American route. Travelers will fly on an Embraer E175.

Flights will go on sale on delta.com beginning on Dec. 27.
