BA won't disclose New York flight sales figures
18.07.09
British Airways has declined to disclose bookings for its new London City Airport - New York flights, which start 29 September, Flightglobal reports. The airline said that, at this point, the niche business travellers targeted by the flights are not prepared to book flights for travel later in the year. We take this to mean that the figures are not good!
The airline is attempting to create a niche product targeting business travellers travelling to and from London's financial district through daily flights using an Airbus A318s configured with 32 lie-flat business class seats, in the depth of the worst aviation recession in decades, which has hit demand for business class seats particularly hard. During an interview yesterday, BA executive VP Americas Simon Talling-Smith gave no assessment of bookings, saying that it was ‘too early to tell’.
