BMI has announced a series of intiatives and route launches that enhance business travel to and from the UK.

Following high demand for its first daily service to Tel Aviv which launched last year, BMI are adding a second daily service from 30 March.

Peter Spencer, managing director, bmi commented: “Tel Aviv is one of our most successful routes and we are delighted to offer a second daily service.  Since launching the route last year we have seen strong growth and know that by offering this extra return flight, we are giving our customers a real choice with greater flexibility especially for those connecting regionally from within the UK and/or flying onward to the USA .

Our A330 aircraft features an excellent Business Class service, including fully flat beds and complimentary Chauffeur Drive on selected fares as well as our world leading Premium Economy seats with 50 inches of legroom, 12 inches more than competitors.  So customers can enjoy a premium travel experience and great value for money fares”

Also on the agenda in March are flights to the Ukranian capital Kiev and improved schedules and frequency to Riyadh.

Travellers will also be privy to more services such as a complimentary Chauffeur Drive option for Business Class customers and the launch of total paperless boarding and mobile check-in, the first British airline to do so.
