Premium passengers with Delta are being offered free use of a Yotel room on arrival at Heathrow’s Terminal 4, with facilities which include a shower, bed, flat-screen TV and wifi access.
The airline believes it will prove particularly popular with passengers who want to freshen-up after an overnight transatlantic flight. But it faces stiff competition from other airlines, such as British Airways and Virgin Atlantic, which have invested heavily in arrivals facilities at Heathrow.
Use of the cabin is available to Delta passengers .as well as those booking with joint venture partners Air France and KLM, travelling in Business Elite on Delta-operated flights from Atlanta, New York, Minneapolis and Detroit.
Diamond and Platinum Skymiles Medallion members, and Flying Blue elite members are also eligible for the service.
Armin Venencie, Delta’s regional sales director for the UK, Ireland and Scandinavia, says: “Our premium travellers expect the convenience of an arrivals facility after a long-haul flight. Our partnership with Yotel offers passengers a convenient, private and comfortable space to change before an important meeting, or freshen up before getting on the road.”
The Ramada group is set to open a 200 bedroom hotel three miles to the east of Heathrow.
The Ramada London Heathrow will offer weekend room rates as low as £69 and will be linked to the airport by the Heathrow Hoppa shuttle service.
The hotel, situated on the Bath Road at Cranford, is scheduled to open on September 17, and will offer 24-hour room service, five air-conditioned meeting rooms plus a work station and flat screen TV in each guest room.
