Franck Goldnadel, Chairman of the Board of Aéroports de la Côte d'Azur, reacted to this announcement:
"The opening of this new direct service between Nice and Boston by Delta is part of a long-standing partnership between our airport and this airline. Delta has always played a pioneering and key role in connecting the Côte d'Azur with the United States, and this new destination strengthens not only our six existing direct routes to the United States, but also the economic, tourist, and cultural links that unite us.
This is excellent news for our passengers, our partners, and the international appeal of the Côte d'Azur."
