American Airlines is to add a fourth daily flight between Heathrow (LHR) and Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) starting on 14 June. The six times weekly service will be operated using American’s two-class Boeing 767-300 aircraft with 219 seats, including 28 in Business Class. Including the daily British Airways service – the oneworld carriers American Airlines and British Airways will now offer five daily frequencies between DFW and LHR.
On 19 May 1982, 30 years ago, American Airlines began its first transatlantic operation at Dallas/Fort Worth with a daily flight to Gatwick. The London service was increased to three daily flights, and in March 2008 was moved to Heathrow. Following entry into Heathrow, the joint business agreement with oneworld partner British Airways was implemented. This allowed hundreds of connections at the Heathrow and Dallas hubs in both directions.
Dallas is a major connecting point for flights to and from South America, whilst Heathrow is the world’s busiest international airport connect with scheduled links to most major points in Europe. www.oneworld.com
