Open Skies agreement = Cheaper flights to US
Yesterday the EU approved an agreement to allow any European airline to make transatlantic flights from March 2008. At present only British Airways, Virgin Airlines, American Airlines and United Airlines can fly from Heathrow to the US.
Open Skies will be a good deal for passengers as it will open the routes into the states to competition from other airlines and will most likely bring prices down.
Hopefully in the coming weeks we'll hear announcements from the no frills airlines about new route plans taking advantage of the new rules when they take force next year.
