London: A day after Kingfisher Airlines started maiden Bangalore-London direct flight, the Chairman of the airline, Vijay Mallya said that it would launch the Mumbai-London flights from October 26.

“The London-Mumbai flights would have connectivity to Colombo, Bangkok, Maldives and Male,” Mallya said.

He said that direct Bangalore to San Francisco flights — A345 are also scheduled to start in October-November.

Mallya, who is also Chairman of United Breweries, said that while travel on his flights would be an experience to savour, the First Class is offered at Business Class prices of airlines like the British Airways and Premium Economy Class at the Economic Class prices. The plane has only two classes - Kingfisher First Class and Kingfisher Premium Economy.

“We have set the standards and raised the bar. We have designed the airlines as consumer product. Our brand embodies latest trends and lifestyle,” he claimed. He said that the unique feature of the wide-bodied aircraft is a bar lounge.
