Delta Air lines, which is the United States-based carrier, has broadcasted that it will be launching flights to Atlanta from Lagos for its elite business class cabin. The airline will incorporate the full flat-bed seats with effect from 5th September, 2012.
The stated changes are a part of the ongoing plan of the US-based airline to invest more than $3 billion in global products, services and airport facilities.
Delta is the only airline that operates daily nonstop flight service between Nigeria and United States. Boeing 767 airliner would be operating the flight with a 201-seat that offers 36 seats in BusinessElite.
The Atlanta-based airline’s Senior Vice-President for Europe, Middle East and Africa, Mr. Perry Cantarutti said, “Nigeria proves to be a crucial market for Delta and we’re stand firm in investing our product out of the Nigerian capital because of the reason our business passengers look forward to a flat-bed seat when travelling to and from the United States.”
