United Airlines today announced plans to expand its global route network with new, nonstop service between London Heathrow and Boston Logan International Airport. This new service builds upon United’s growing presence in London and provides U.K. customers another convenient option to get to the United States. United plans to operate its premium Boeing 767-300ER aircraft on the route, with 46 United Polaris Business Class and 22 United Premium Plus seats.
The aircraft features the highest proportion of premium seats on any widebody aircraft operated by a U.S. carrier between London and the United States."We are thrilled to offer travellers a convenient, non-stop option between London and Boston with this addition to our global network,” said Patrick Quayle, United’s vice president of International Network and Alliances. “We will continue to monitor the demand recovery and travel restrictions as we finalize a start date for this service later in 2021."
