Discounter Zoom Airlines eyes JFK-London route
Canadian discounter Zoom Airlines hopes to begin non-stop service this summer between New York JFK and London Gatwick. The carrier has filed an application with the Department of Transportation to start Boeing 767 service on the route beginning June 7. Travel Weekly (free registration) writes that "Zoom Airlines was established as a Canadian carrier and still offers scheduled service from eight Canadian cities to five U.K. destinations, including London (Gatwick), and from four Canadian cities to Paris. But last August the Bank of Scotland acquired a minority stake in Zoom for about $11 million, and the company said it planned to use the money to establish Zoom U.K. to fly to non-Canadian destinations, such as the U.S."
