Type 1 conventional CD103 +  dendritic cells (cDC1) contribute significantly to the cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response during influenza virus infection; however, the mechanisms by which cDC1s promote CTL recruitment and viral clearance are unclear. We demonstrate that cDC1 ablation leads to a deficient influenza-specific primary CD8 +  T cell response alongside severe pulmonary inflammation, intensifying susceptibility to infection. The diminished pulmonary CTL population is not only a consequence of reduced priming in the lymph node (LN), but also of dysregulated CD8 +  T cell egression from the LN and reduced CD8 +  T cell viability in the lungs. cDC1s promote S1PR expression on CTLs, a key chemokine receptor facilitating CTL LN egress, and express high levels of the T cell survival cytokine, IL-15, to support CTL viability at the site of infection. Moreover, cDC1 ablation leads to severe impairment of CD8 +  T cell memory recall and cross-reactive protection, suggesting that cDC1 are not only involved in primary T cell activation, but also in supporting the development of effective memory CD8 +  T cell precursors. Our findings demonstrate a previously unappreciated and multifaceted role of CD103 +  DCs in controlling pulmonary T cell-mediated immune responses.
