Syracuse (WSYR-TV) – An announcement from Delta airlines signals good news for passengers flying out of Hancock International Airport.

On Thursday, Delta announced it will expand the number of flights flying from Hancock to New York City’s JFK airport.

Beginning in April, Delta will add two additional round trip flights.

The airline will also add more flights from Syracuse to Minneapolis and upgrade service from Hancock airport to Atlanta by flying a plane with more seating capacity.

All the changes will take effect next year.
