Bengals vs. Cowboys has Delta Airlines adding new flights

The Cincinnati Bengals have major airlines offering new routes ahead of special games now.

In anticipation of Cincinnati’s “Monday Night Football” game against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 14 (Dec. 9), Delta Airlines has added a new flight from CVG Airport for fans.

Here’s the info on the new routes offered due to the game, per Molly Schramm of WCPO:

• CVG to DFW — Saturday, Dec. 7 — Departure: 1 p.m. — Arrival: 2:29 p.m.
• DFW to CVG — Tuesday, Dec. 10 — Departure: 12:45 p.m. — Arrival: 3:58 p.m.

Given the cross-conference nature of that game against the biggest team in the league, it only makes sense, with tickets for the flights going on sale July 6.

As of now, before any flexes, the Bengals technically have five primetime games on the schedule, though the league’s view of late-afternoon 4 p.m. ET games being “national” in nature means roughly more than half boast a national audience of some sort next season.
