Continental Airlines will begin flights from New York and Houston to Heathrow next year.
The twice-daily flights will commence from March 29th 2008 to Heathrow and will depart from Newark Liberty International Airport and Houston George Bush Intercontinental Airport.
Larry Kellner, chairman and CEO of Continental, said: "At last we will be able to give our customers something they have long requested - the opportunity to fly to both London's main airports with their preferred airline.
"At the same time, we will be able to show transatlantic travellers already using Heathrow what they have been missing. We look forward to the chance to compete at Europe's most important business airport."
The new routes will be in addition to Continental's existing flights between Gatwick to Newark and Houston daily as well as well as a seasonal daily service to Cleveland.
Continental already operates transatlantic flights from eight UK airports, including Glasgow, Manchester, Dublin and Birmingham.
