Delta airlines Miami to London nonstop flights

Delta Air Lines will expand its international schedule with new nonstop flights from London’s Heathrow Airport to Miami for spring and summer 2011, continuing its focus on markets with high demand for business travel.

Miami – London-Heathrow
March 26, 2011
Boeing 767-300ER
New daily service

To celebrate its new service, Delta is offering special introductory fares* on its new routes, with limited-time savings available.

In Miami, Delta will introduce new intra-Florida flights to improve customers' connecting options to and from Florida's biggest business and leisure destinations.
Delta's new service would provide more choices and competition for customers traveling between these important U.S. cities and London, one of the most popular destinations in Europe for both business and leisure travelers," said Glen Hauenstein, Delta's executive vice president of network planning and revenue management.American and British Airways are big players in the Heathrow route from Boston and Miami, with only Virgin Atlantic Airways as competition. That's why the European Commission and the U.S. Department of Transportation singled those routes out when they okayed the joint business agreement between the Oneworld partners, AA, BA and Iberia.

Volaris flights San Jose guadalajara Mexico

Volaris Airlines launched direct service today between San José and Mexico with its first flight to Guadalajara, making San Jose the third US city in the Mexican carrier’s network.


Volaris is the first new airline starting service at SJC since Hawaiian Airlines launched its
Honolulu flight in October 2005. San José is the 25th airport in the Volaris network of routes serving Mexico and the United States.

The new flights are available for booking immediately through all Volaris distribution
channels. For information about Volaris, routes, and tickets, go to www.volaris.com.mx.

flight schedule new San Jose-Guadalajara service from Volaris:

Destination Departure time Arrival time
GDL-SJC 9:15 a.m. 11:25 a.m.
SJC-GDL 12:35 p.m. 6:30 p.m.

Times are based on local time zones

Major factors for selecting SJC to expand the Volaris network connecting Mexican
destinations cited by the new airline include the size and strength of the Mexican-American community in San Jose and the Bay Area, SJC’s pivotal location for Silicon Valley technology businesses, and the convenience and efficiency of the recently modernized airport.

“It’s not a coincidence that Volaris decided to enter the US-Mexico market by making
San José its third international destination,” said Beltranena. “We see a market with enormous potential, and we see the opportunity to make air travel between our countries, specifically between California and Mexico, more affordable and convenient.”

Bangkok to doha Qatar nonstop flight

Qatar Airways today announced a huge expansion in Thailand with the introduction of a third daily nonstop flight from Bangkok to doha, effective November 1st.

The DOH BKK service will facilitate increasing demand from many parts of the world, particularly European and North and South American customers for travel to Thailand. Qatar Airways’ Northern Winter schedule upgrades offer convenient connections for travellers both in and out of the Thai capital.

The airline will continue to operate the modern Airbus A330-200 airplane in a two-class seating configuration on the Bangkok route. The Business cabin has up to 24 seats that recline 160 degrees, while Economy features a maximum 259 seats.

Depart Doha QR610 at 0810 hrs, arrive Bangkok 1855 hrs

QR612 at 2100 hrs, arrive Bangkok 0745 hrs the following day

Depart Bangkok QR613 at 0915 hrs, arrive Doha 1155 hrs

QR611 at 2330 hrs, arrive Doha 2310 hrs



The Airbus A330-200 features Qatar Airways’ award-winning Audio Video On Demand inflight entertainment system, allowing passengers in both classes to choose from an extensive list of international new release films and short programmes to view on their individual TV screens, and listen to an extensive list of CDs and radio channels.
The additional Bangkok service will continue to Vietnam with four of the flights heading onwards to the capital Hanoi and three onto Ho Chi Minh City.

Passengers originating in Thailand or Vietnam can also purchase tickets to fly between Bangkok and both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City on Qatar Airways.

Beginning October 12, Qatar Airways introduces six-flights-a-week doha to Phuket via Kuala Lumpur. With the Bangkok flights, the airline’s Thai operations will step up from 21 to 27 flights a week across two destinations.

Qatar Airways has brought its Asian expansion plan into focus this year, adding three new destinations to its network in 2010 and boosting capacity and frequency across the entire region.


The travel market in Asia is experiencing significant growth and one which Al Baker stressed Qatar Airways was well placed to take advantage of.

“IATA statistics have passenger demand in the Asia Pacific region up over 10 per cent on the previous year. The timing of Qatar Airways’ expansion drive in Asia couldn’t be better to take advantage of this increase in traffic,” he added.

By 2013, Qatar Airways plans to serve 120 key business and leisure destinations worldwide with a modern fleet of 120 aircraft. Today, the airline’s fleet stands at 88 aircraft, flying to 92 destinations across Europe, Asia, Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific, North and South America.

qatar flights from Doha to Madrid spain

The airline will be the only Gulf-based carrier flying to the Spanish capital, offering convenient connections from the Middle East to Madrid, via Doha.

The Doha – Madrid route began in December 2005 with a three-times-a-week service, which grew steadily up to daily last year operated with an Airbus A330 aircraft in a two-class seating configuration with up to 24 seats in Business Class and up to 236 seats in Economy class.

Qatar Airways is very committed to the Spanish market and recently localised its global website to offer increased customer convenience to Spanish customers.In addition to Barcelona, Qatar Airways has opened new routes to Ankara and Copenhagen and will also begin flying to Nice by end of 2010. Europe currently forms 20% of Qatar Airways global network with 20 destinations as of now.
In 2011, Qatar Airways will add four more routes in Europe beginning with Bucharest, Romania and Budapest, Hungary (January 17), Brussels, Belgium (January 31), and Stuttgart, Germany (March 9).
After October 2010, Phuket and Nice will also be added to the Qatar Airways network.



Al Baker added: “With 14 flights a week between Spain and Qatar and onto a host of connecting international cities, we demonstrate the growing importance of bilateral ties between our two countries. Spain and the State of Qatar enjoy developing relations which are growing from strength to strength.”

direct Flights doha to Ankara Turkey Qatar Airways

Qatar Airways is the only Gulf carrier flying from doha to Ankara, operating an Airbus A320 with 12 seats in Business Class and 132 in Economy.

Ankara becomes the award-winning airline’s 88th destination and third new route of 2010. From Qatar Airways’ Doha hub, passengers can connect to an exciting range of business and leisure destinations across the Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific and South Asia.

These include Maldives, Johannesburg, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Osaka, Delhi, Muscat and Melbourne.

Depart Ankara - Esenboga International Airport

QR463 FRI, SUN at 1540hrs, arrive Doha at 1920hrs

QR463 MON, THURS at 2000hrs, arrive Doha at 2340hrs


Since we entered Turkey in 2004 with flights to Istanbul, the route’s performance has exceeded our expectations year on year.

“We are confident that our new service to Ankara will be equally as successful helping facilitate travel to and from this wonderful city and beyond for both the business travel community and leisure travellers.”

The new route comes at a time of strong trade between Qatar and Turkey, whose relations have grown from strength to strength and which go beyond political and economic ties.
