United Airlines is to reinstate its London Heathrow – Denver route, on a summer seasonal basis, from Saturday 24 March 2018 to Friday 26 October 2018.

The flight will operate on a daily basis between London Heathrow Terminal 2 and Denver International airport.

The flight will be operated with the Boeing 787 Dreamliner with 36 flat-bed seats in business class, 70 “Economy Plus” seats and 113 seats in economy.

Note that in business class the flight will operate with United’s “Polaris” in-flight amenities, but not the latest Polaris business class seat that was announced late last year.

The London Heathrow – Denver route is currently served exclusively by BA. Norwegian is also due to fly from London Gatwick to Denver from London Gatwick to Denver from 16 September 2017.

These flights are Accra, Cape Town, Denver, Las Vegas, Miami, Nairobi, Phoenix and Vancouver.

It’s not often you hear of first class being added to BA’s London Heathrow routes. Indeed, it wasn’t long ago BA announced it was withdrawing first class from Cape Town, Las Vegas, Phoenix and Vancouver from later this month.

However, BA will be upgrading its single daily flight to Denver, Colorado (BA 219 and BA 218 return) from a three class Boeing 777 to a four class Boeing 747 from Sunday 29 March 2015.

This means that BA’s first class cabin will be available on this route and travellers in Club World business class will have the option of the popular 20 seat cabin in the “bubble” of the 747.

We’re not quite sure what has prompted this decision, other than that BA is the sole operator of the London Heathrow – Denver route and transatlantic traffic is buoyant at the moment.
