OpenSkies Celebrates Its Second Anniversary

BA "All Business" Subsidiary Flying Two Established Routes

British Airways subsidiary OpenSkies, billed as an "all business airline" operating transatlantic flights, is recognizing its second anniversary this month. Launched on June 19, 2008 following the Open Skies agreement signed on March 30, 2008, OpenSkies now operates two flights daily between Paris (Orly) and New York (Newark), in addition to five weekly flights between Paris (Orly) and Washington (Dulles).

Between June 2008 and May 2010, OpenSkies has flown more than 155,000 passengers between Paris and New York, resulting in a 29 percent market share. Further, summer operation of the direct line between Paris and Washington, recently launched on May 3, 2010, is in line with the company's initial estimations.

"I want to thank all of our customers and employees for helping us grow into the successful business we are today," said Dale Moss, CEO of OpenSkies. "Over the past two years, OpenSkies has become a major player and in the business class industry for transatlantic flights. We look forward to celebrating many more years of success."

The company says that the positive results achieved to date have enabled it to plan for future expansion. OpenSkies is currently considering 20 key business destinations to launch its third route, which is anticipated to take place later this summer.
