ATLANTA, GA -- After last month's terror attacks in Brussels, Delta Air Lines has suspended its direct Atlanta-to-Brussels service until March 2017.

The Atlanta-based airline made the announcement on Sunday in a statement that said, "Delta remains committed to the Belgium market and will resume service between New York-JFK and Brussels once the airport provides clearance for international operations. Customers affected by the schedule change will be re-accommodated on alternative Delta services or flights operated by joint venture partners Air France and KLM."
