Flights > News > # 1467 (17/09/2007)

BMI will offer flights to 17 new destinations following its takeover of the British Airways franchise BMED.
All the new services start at the beginning of the winter season on Sunday October 28 (London Heathrow to Cairo takes off on November 4).
New routes include daily flights from Heathrow to Amman, Beirut and Cairo and a host of destinations in the former Soviet Union.
BMI chief executive, Nigel Turner, said: “Ten years ago, we had a network that was 100% short-haul domestic and European. From the end of October, more than half of our destinations from Heathrow will be in the medium-haul and long-haul markets.”
“We will serve 36 destinations from Heathrow this winter, with an in-flight product that provides the highest level of service to business and leisure travellers alike. We have also identified a number of key destinations which we are eager to serve from Heathrow, including Kiev, Kuwait City, Minsk, Lahore, Tel Aviv, Dammam and Sana'a, as well as increasing flights from Heathrow to Moscow. We will be seeking a number of such opportunities during the coming months.”
