Continuing its commitment of providing guests with greater choice, convenience and further strengthening its global footprint, Jet Airways - India’s full-service, premier international airline, announced the introduction of its third, non-stop, daily service between Mumbai and 
London Heathrow.
Effective October 29, 2017, and as part of the airline’s forthcoming winter schedule, the new daytime service - 9W 116 will depart from Mumbai at 0905hrs to arrive in London Heathrow at 1335hrs (local time). 
On its return, the planned departure for 9W 115 from London Heathrow is at 1530hrs (local time), arriving in Mumbai at 0555hrs, giving guests a head start to their day in India’s economic capital should they wish to make a stopover, be it for business or for leisure.
The new flight will boost Jet Airways’ passenger and cargo capacity between India and the United Kingdom by almost 33 percent, allowing the airline to capitalize on the growing round-the-year demand being witnessed from EU and non-EU countries to India and other emerging economies in the region, on the back of fast expanding relationships in the areas of trade, commerce, tourism, culture, and, education.
The third frequency enhances onward connectivity over London Heathrow to North America with partners Delta Air Lines and Virgin Atlantic. Jet Airways will now offer improved connection time and 13 destinations over London Heathrow to North America including Atlanta, Boston, Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis, Newark, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, Salt Lake City and 
Washington (Virginia).

The new frequency will enable us to offer our guests seamless connectivity, choice and convenience with partners Delta Air Lines and Virgin Atlantic over London Heathrow with a single baggage drop and through check-in. Our world-class experience together with our signature Indian hospitality, makes us stand apart from 
the competition.”
Jet Airways, nominated by TripAdvisor as ‘India’s Best Airline1 ‘ will deploy the biggest aircraft in its fleet – Boeing 777-300ER, offering a three-class configuration that includes the airline’s award-winning ‘First Class’ private suites, 180° lie-flat beds for Business travelers as well as comfortable and ergonomic designed Economy seating, on the new frequency. Guests will also be able to choose from a carefully-curated menu of delectable international cuisine and experience our cutting-edge in-flight entertainment system, all delivered with the airline’s trademark touch of warm and endearing Indian hospitality.
