Delta Increase Flights between Heathrow, Atlanta and Detroit

The additional services between London, Atlanta and Detroit begin in November

It has been revealed by popular American airline Delta that they are to increase services between a number of U.S cities and London Heathrow. Looking to provide greater access for business and tourist travellers flying between the two countries, both Detroit and Atlanta will have additional flights added to their schedules.

Announcing that the primary aim behind the increase was to offer additional options for those flying across the Atlantic for business reasons, Delta said that the new flights would be on sale from 21st September. With all flights departing London Heathrow, a second flight to Atlanta will be added four times a week while an additional flight will be added to the thrice weekly services to Detroit.

Onboard Delta's Boeing 767 aircraft, 36 seats will be offered in BusinessElite, whilst a further 180 economy seats will also be available. Starting from the 1st November, additional flights to Atlanta will depart London on Saturdays, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, whilst those to Detroit will leave on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. The announcement marks an increasing number of flights provided by Delta with the business traveller in mind. In addition to these new services, they have previously revealed additional flights to JFK, beginning on September 20th. And with the U.S remaining a popular holiday destination, it is likely that tourists and business flyers will take advantage of the increased services.
