The airline with the fantastic green, blue and red colour scheme will be introducing a great new route which may be beneificial to those living in Birmingham.
As of July 3rd, the carrier which flies 757, 767 and A310 aircraft will fly Tashkent (Uzbekistan) – Birmingham (UK) John F Kennedy (USA) and then back again.
Birmingham is certainly an up and coming airport, it was only recently that I learnt that Emirates flew out of there!

A very smart route…traffic across atlantic is very dense and Uzbekistan being reliable and cheap will do good bussiness hopefuly.
