A New England air charter company plans to enter the New York-to- Los Angeles market later this year with charter flights on specially configured airliners.
The company, DB Air Ltd. of North Hampton, N.H., will offer one round-trip flight five days a week between Burbank Airport near Los Angeles and Kennedy International Airport, starting Dec. 1. Fares will be the same as business-class service on scheduled transcontinental flights.
DB Air's plans follow the introduction in June by Lufthansa of scheduled all-business-class service on a leased 48-seat 737-700 aircraft, between Düsseldorf and Newark. A spokeswoman for Lufthansa, Jennifer Urbaniak, said the service, which is offered every day but Tuesday, was profitable.
