Birmingham becomes the airline’s fifth United Kingdom destination

US Airways customers have a new United Kingdom option with nonstop service to Birmingham from the airline’s international gateway at Philadelphia International Airport. Birmingham is the first of three new US Airways offerings in 2009, preceding Oslo, Norway and Tel Aviv service to begin later this summer.

Senior Vice President, East Coast, International and Cargo Operations Suzanne Boda said, “We’re thrilled to expand our presence in the United Kingdom with new Birmingham flying. Our customers will have spectacular trans-Atlantic access via our international gateway at Philadelphia from London’s Heathrow and Gatwick Airports, Manchester and Glasgow, in addition to Birmingham. We appreciate the support and hard work of Birmingham officials as well as the continued partnership of the Philadelphia Division of Aviation.”

This seasonal route is operated with Boeing 757 ETOPS aircraft configured with 12 seats in Envoy, US Airways’ trans-Atlantic business class and 164 seats in the main cabin.
