TAM announce Heathrow – Rio flights
26.06.10
TAM, South America’s largest airline and a Star Alliance member, will introduce a new direct non-stop service between Heathrow and Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday, 10 August. The three times weekly service will use Airbus A330-200s and will compliment its existing daily Boeing 777-ER service between London and Sao Paulo.
The airline will offer 223 seats that include a First Class cabin with just four flat sleeper seats, a further 36 seats in business and 183 in economy. Flight times in both directions are designed to maximise convenience, and the connecting services at both ends of the route with other TAM flights or those of its Star Alliance partners.
With the new Rio service, TAM will be offering over 3,200 seats a week in each direction between the UK and Brazil, an increase in capacity of 25%.
