World Trade Center Utah President and CEO Derek B. Miller released the following statement in support of the Delta/Virgin Atlantic direct service between Salt Lake City and London-Heathrow:
“Having a direct flight from Salt Lake City to the Heathrow Airport in London will provide a quicker connection to one of Utah’s top trading partners and accelerate the development of an already strong trade relationship between Utah and the United Kingdom,” said Derek B. Miller, president and CEO of World Trade Center Utah. “This flight joins two other direct flights, Amsterdam and Paris, that put Utah on the map for international travelers. We are grateful for the Delta/Virgin Atlantic joint venture, approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation, which made this flight possible.”
