US airline Delta Air Lines is to pull out its service to Dubai.

The airline will end its flights between Atlanta and Dubai on February 11 2016. 

A Delta spokeswoman said: “The B777 aircraft used to operate ATL-DXB will be redeployed to other transatlantic markets where it can compete on a level playing field that’s not distorted by subsidised state-owned airlines.” 

United will be the only US airline serving the Persian Gulf after Delta pulls out of Dubai.
