DL: Nabs BA/AA JV Routes to BOS and MIA, Services and Dates TBA...

It seems that the slots British Airways and American Airlines vacated due to the join venture tie up are to be awarded to Delta.

Delta's request has been granted by US Department of Transportation and the European Commission for:

• London Heathrow - Boston
• London Heathrow - Miami 

As approved, services are due commence in March next year.

Like BA/AA, and the Star Alliance Joint Venture, these routes will be operated within the SkyTeam joint venture (involve Delta, Alitalia, Air France-KLM)

Final schedules and the prices are due to be announced in the near future.

An interesting wrinkle as Delta's operations at Boston are limited in comparison to some of it's hubs, where as Miami is more limited - although it does open up the fight and links for Caribbean services.
