(TAN): United is adding five new flights to London’s Heathrow Airport, including two more flights from New York/Newark, additional trips from both Denver and San Francisco, as well as an all-new direct flight from Boston, the airline said.
The new service begins in March of 2022 and with these additions, United will be the only US carrier to offer nonstop service between the nation’s top seven business markets and London. United will offer 22 flights per day from the US to London, and more flights between New York City and London than any other US carrier.

London was the most booked international destination for United’s business customers in October, and the airline expects this trend to continue into 2022.
“For nearly 30 years, United has provided a critical link between the US and London, maintaining service throughout the pandemic and strategically growing our schedule to keep our customers in these key global business centers connected,” said Patrick Quayle, senior vice president of international network and alliances at United. “London is an integral part of United’s network and we remain confident demand will continue to grow, particularly as international business travel returns in 2022.”
