Delta Air Lines Flights from Boston to Cleveland

Delta Air Lines on this route

Boston is a Delta Air Lines hub, so Delta Air Lines typically offers several daily departures on BOS–CLE, with nonstop service where demand supports it and connections through its other hubs otherwise. The nonstop flight time is about 1h 45m.

Fare classes available: Basic Economy, Main Cabin, Comfort+, First Class / Delta One. Delta removed change fees on Main Cabin and above for travel originating in the US, Canada, Europe, Africa, and the Caribbean. You pay only the fare difference, and if the new flight is cheaper the difference is returned as an eCredit.

The lowest one-way fare we have on record for this route is $202 on American. Fares like that usually show up on off-peak days and for travel booked a few weeks out; an agent can check whether a similar fare is available for your dates.

Because Delta Air Lines treats Boston as a hub, this pairing tends to have frequent departures throughout the day. American Airlines and Southwest Airlines also compete here, which keeps fares in check.

The 561 miles between Boston and Cleveland works out to about 1h 45m in the air, the range where nonstops are common on busy days and connections through a hub fill in the rest. Ask the agent to compare both; the one-stop is sometimes cheaper by a wide margin.

When to fly

Winter fares out of the Northeast peak around the holidays and February school breaks; late April to early June and September to early November are usually the calmest on price.

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday departures are usually the cheapest days on domestic routes; Friday and Sunday are the most expensive. Early-morning and late-evening flights are often priced below the midday departures.

For domestic travel, booking three to eight weeks ahead usually captures the best price. Inside two weeks, fares climb; more than four months out, airlines have not yet released their cheapest inventory.
