As Heathrow's popularity grows, so does demand If you're flying to London from the western USA, chances are your flight be headed to London's Heathrow Airport rather than the less-congested, but less-convenient Gatwick Airport in the city's distant southern suburbs. With its proximity to central London and its superb rail connection, Heathrow has long been the airport of choice for most passengers. A Britsh Airways-led makeover of the airport has also helped turn it into a gleaming shopping mecca, increasing Heathrow's popularity, reports the Denver Post. But as Heathrow's stature grows, so does the number of airlines seeking to add flights there. American and United are the only U.S. airlines authorized by the British government to serve Heathrow, though Delta and Continental are making a hard push to gain access. *************************************************** The owner of Roger's Trinbago Site/TnTisland.com Roj (Roger James) : escape email mailto:ejames@escape.ca Trinbago site: www.tntisland.com Carib Brass Ctn site www.tntisland.com/caribbeanbrassconnection/ Steel Expressions www.mts.net/~ejames/se/ Site of the Week: www.tobagoweddings.com/ TnT Webdirectory: http://search.co.tt *********************************************************
