Blue1 goes double daily at Heathrow

Star Alliance member Blue1, the Finnish arm of SAS, has gone double daily from Helsinki to Heathrow.  Since 1 January it has been a full member of Star Alliance and is in the process of replacing its 84-seat Avro RJ fleet with 115-seat Boeing 717s (which started life as the MD 5).

For summer 2011, Blue1 is adding three new European mainly leisure destinations.  Helsinki – Edinburgh will operate on Mondays and Fridays from 29 April; Helsinki – Marseille on Tuesdays and Saturdays from 31 May and Saturday only services to Pula (Croatia), located on the Adriatic Sea on the Istrian Peninsula, will operate every Saturday from 28 May until 24 September. www.blue1.com
