British Airways Suspends Detroit-London Flight

British Airways Suspends Detroit-London Flight
|

British Airways said on Wednesday it would suspend its daily flight between Detroit and London's Heathrow Airport in March, citing the changing nature of the U.S. auto industry.

The aircraft will be used on other, more profitable routes, the airline said.

British Airways has operated the route for more than 50 years, but was not able to make a reasonable level of profit and sees no possible upswing, the carrier said.
