Ever since the dawn of modern aviation, the economic
progress of the countries has accelerated. Opening up flights is one of the
best ways of accelerating regional and national development. With the movement
of people and products, it becomes possible to diversify economic activities
and to make the fruits of development reach people easily. Aviation has played
a big role in economic development of USA and Canada on one hand and Europe on
the other.
This has also led to the globalization
movement at a pace never seen before. The transatlantic flights between USA and Europe has had multi-dimensional advantages. Some of the key European countries
which have shared a large part of the aviation traffic with USA are United Kingdom,
France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece and Amsterdam.
Flights to Europe are operated by American carriers under
codeshare or interline agreements with the European carriers. One or the other
American airline companies has tied up with the European airline companies to
fly passengers from USA to Europe and vice versa. This way the airline
companies of both the regions gain profits.
Another important fact to note with respect to the
transatlantic flights is that most of the US cities which connect with European
cities lies on the eastern and central part of USA. Only some important cities
on the western side of USA connect to the European cities. There are direct
flights which can fly within the shortest time possible enabling quickest connectivity.
Then there are connecting flights with one or more stopovers of varying time
durations. The connections are most common because these allow the airline
companies to showcase their own countries or cities to the passengers. This is
one of the ways to showcase your cities and country to the outside world, which
leads to increase of tourism.
An interesting feature is that all types of carriers are
involved in this cross-atlantic flight routes. Be it the budget carriers such
as Southwest in USA and Ryanair in Europe, or the legacy carriers such as
Delta, United and American Airlines in USA and British Airways, Air France or
Lufthansa in Europe, all are directly or indirectly involved in enabling
movement of people.
This has given both the cheap flight ticket option for
economy class travelers as well as the most luxurious travel experience for the
First Class flyers.
Transatlantic flights are also flown by the carriers of Arab
world, chiefly the big three-Emirates, Etihad and Qatar Airways. From their
hubs in respective countries these facilitate movement of people from South and
Far East Asia to USA without touching down in European cities.
This has been
made possible with the advent of planes capable of taking up direct long haul
flights. This has also led to reduction of influence of European carriers for
carrying Asian people to the USA or Canada.
