I just received a letter from BA informing customers that effective March 30, 2008 they are suspending their non stop flights from Detroit Metro to London Heathrow after serving us for over 50 years. A variety of changing conditions in the grater Detroit marketplace brought about the decision, including reduced demand for business travel, according to BA. I had the opportunity to fly with them to London a few times. It is a wonderful airline. The planes were always new and clean. The food and service was great, and the personnel were very courteous and professional. I am saddened to see them leave, although I am sure Northwest Airlines will be able to pick up the slack. They have several non stop flights daily to Europe via Amsterdam from DTW. | ||

"A recent economic study showed twice daily flights between southeast Michigan and mainland China could be worth a quarter billion dollars annually to the metro Detroit economy." Any idea on how so? | ||
