Nashville airport could get second transatlantic service from Discover Airlines
According to reports from The Business Journals, Nashville International Airport could get another transatlantic service from Discover Airlines, which has selected this destination to expand its network in North America.
The Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority has been negotiating for months for a European route, to increase competition and create more affordable fares. This possible new transatlantic service will boost business and tourism in the region.
Discover Airlines tentatively begins service to this destination in May 2025 with three flights a week on a 270-seat Airbus A330-200, and the leisure airline must also receive approval from the Lufthansa Group board to materialize this route. Discover’s network in the United States currently has services to Philadelphia, Tampa, Orlando, Fort Myers, Las Vegas, and Anchorage.
In May 2018, British Airways began non-stop flights to Nashville on Boeing 787s, providing the only transatlantic service to that destination. According to statistics from the UK Civil Aviation Authority, 116,655 passengers were flown between Nashville and London-Heathrow in 2023.
