AMERICAN LAUNCHES FIRST NON-STOP JET LINK BETWEEN MANCHESTER-BOSTON
American Airlines is launching a new transatlantic service between Manchester Airport and Boston Logan International for the summer season. This is the first time the two cities have been linked by non-stop scheduled jet service.
Boston is the most popular US destination not currently served with direct flights from Manchester with passengers instead flying on indirect routes via other US or European cities.
“We know that there is a great deal of demand from the Northern UK for a direct, non-stop link to Boston, and that this is growing,” said Craig Kreeger, American Airlines Vice President Europe & Pacific. “The new service will provide a very convenient link for both business and leisure travellers whose destination is Boston or the 36 destinations throughout North America and the Caribbean that American serves from there.”
Flights begin on 15 May and will run until 31 October this year and will be operated by Boeing 757 aircraft offering an all-economy class service with 188 seats.

“American Airlines’ Boston service is a welcome addition to Manchester Airport and will no doubt prove popular with our passengers”, said John Spooner, Manchester Airport’s Managing Director. “Destinations like Boston have been growing in popularity and now Manchester Airport can proudly boast direct flights with a major carrier”.
American, which has operated from Manchester since 1986 already operates a daily service to Chicago’s O’Hare Airport with two-class Boeing 767-300 equipment.
American Airlines is the world's largest carrier. American, American Eagle and the AmericanConnection regional carriers serve more than 250 cities in over 40 countries with more than 3,900 daily flights. The combined network fleet numbers more than 1,000 aircraft. American's UK Web site, www.americanairlines.co.uk provides users with easy access to check and book fares, plus information and travel offers. American Airlines is a founding member of the oneworld Alliance.
