LOT goes solo on Heathrow-Warsaw

Tuesday, 15 Apr, 2008 0

LOT Polish Airlines has become the only carrier serving Warsaw from Heathrow.

A move by British Airways of flights to the Polish capital from Heathrow to Gatwick has given LOT a monopoly on the route.

LOT, which runs three flights a day to Warsaw from Heathrow, has started online check-in via www.lot.com to ease the process at Heathrow Terminal 1.

The introduction of the summer schedule also sees LOT resuming flights three days a week to Beijing from Warsaw after almost 10 years.

LOT regional director UK & Ireland Slawomir Noszczak said: “Heathrow remains the first choice departure airport for business travellers and we therefore anticipate continuing traffic growth on our Warsaw flights from London.

“We have already established a strong reputation as a business carrier and we look forward to welcoming even more passengers to our services.

‘In addition, the launch of flights to Beijing is the first step towards expanding our long-haul network to the Far East.

“The close economic ties between Asia and Europe and an ever-increasing number of tourists to the region make this a prime area for expansion for LOT.

“With the strategic position of Warsaw, we also expect passenger growth from across Europe, connecting with onward flights at our home hub.”
