I mentioned before I wanted to get over to the West coast this summer. If anyone else was thinking the same, I just booked today EDI-SEA for £470 with Delta 30th June – 31st July. I thought the £550 mark was ambitious so I made a point of getting this now – just in case anyone else is looking to book something similar.

Hope that this doesnt mean they are going to leave LGW
MSP is being axed. DTW is moving to a 757. To be honest I doubt they will last at LGW beyond the summer season…

Is the service to SEA going to be a non-stop service, or will it go via MSP/DTW?
It will be non-stop.

Not in the summer they won’t! There might be some £10 off fares in winter but nothing extraordinary.

Interesting, I’m looking to go to Seattle as well. Coming up as about £600 on NWA site which is pretty standard to get over.
Would have thought they would have done an introductory seat sale though, anyone know if they will be doing this?

Was just reading this on the A/net forum – great news indeed – always nice to see someone new at LHR! – As far as i know they will use A330s too! Added plus! 😀
