“London is the most popular International destination from Boston Logan, Heathrow is the airport of choice and Delta Air Lines entry into the market will give customers more choice to London and cements Delta’s position as Boston’s busiest airline across the Atlantic,’’ said Ed Freni, Massport Director of Aviation. “Logan’s customers are already familiar with their service to Amsterdam, and in addition to London, Delta will also start seasonal service to Paris’ Charles De Gaulle Airport on March 26 which complements the codeshare service to Paris on Air France.’’
With these additions, no airline will offer more international capacity from Boston Logan than Delta.
Heathrow is London's preferred airport for business travelers. Since 2007, when the U.S. and U.K. governments liberalized air service access between their two countries, Delta has added more nonstop service to Heathrow than any of its U.S. competitors. The airline has grown from no service to Heathrow in 2007 to 10 daily flights from six U.S. cities planned for summer 2011, with nonstop service from its hubs in Atlanta, Detroit, New York-JFK, and Minneapolis-
"Delta's industry-leading growth in Heathrow service underscores our commitment to the market," said Perry Cantarutti, Delta's senior vice president – Europe, Middle East and Africa. "Heathrow is the airport our international business customers consistently tell us they prefer when flying to London."
In addition to London Heathrow and Paris Charles De Gaulle, in 2011 Delta has added or will add nonstop service from Boston to Pittsburgh, Kansas City and Norfolk, Va. to provide additional international connecting opportunities for customers in these cities via Boston.
