American Vs. Delta Vs. United: Which Airline Is Bigger Internationally?

Between September and December, the so-called US big three carriers—American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines—collectively plan 917 daily international departures (double for both ways). They will operate 41% of the country's international services. These findings are from analyzing the latest Cirium Diio data.

With 351 daily departures, United has the most departures of the trio, mainly due to its strong long-haul presence, although it doesn't yet plan any never-before-served European flights next year . American is very close (346), largely because of its extensive operations, particularly to Mexico, the Caribbean, and South America. Delta is in distant third place (220).
