Guess who’s coming to business class?

Monday, 10 Aug, 2004 0

ATA Airlines Inc. announced its system-wide business class service will be available later this month.

“Our strategic business class initiative is an important step in the natural evolution of our company,” said George Mikelsons, chief executive officer.

ATA is the nation’s tenth largest passenger carrier.

Mr Mikelsons said ATA’s business class would include 21-inch-wide seats, or more than four inches wider than typical seats, among other amenities.

He said ATA’s fleet of Boeing 737-800, 757-300 and 757-200 aircraft will be configured with a dozen business class seats by late November.

ATA recently announced an expanded route structure, including new nonstop service between Dallas/Ft. Worth and Indianapolis. The airline serves 40 cities in the US, Mexico and the Caribbean.
