Delta Air Lines Inc said on Monday it would resume flights between Seattle and Shanghai-Pudong on June 25, the first U.S. airline to re-connect the United States and China after flights were suspended in February due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The flights will operate twice a week in June and from July, once a week from Seattle and Detroit, Delta said.
