Delta and Virgin to fully co-locate at Terminal 3
Delta Air Lines will operate exclusively from Heathrow Terminal 3 next month.
The move means Delta and Virgin Atlantic will now operate from the same terminal making it easier for customers to manage their travel plans including any last-minute flight changes.
On September 14 Delta will transfer its Atlanta, Detroit, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City and Philadelphia flights from Terminal 4 to join its services to New York-JFK, Boston and Seattle that already operate from Terminal 3.
In total, Delta will operate 11 daily flights to eight US cities non-stop from Terminal 3.
The two airlines’ summer schedule includes up to 40 daily non-stop flights between North America and the U.K, of which, 28 operate between Heathrow and the US.
Delta senior vice president Europe, Middle East and Africa Nat Pieper said: "This enhances the travel experience for customers flying from Heathrow and marks a major milestone in our joint venture."
Virgin executive vice president, commercial, Erik Varwijk, said: "Once the switch goes ahead, our customers can enjoy an even more seamless experience flying from or through London."
