Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan is featured in an exclusive video celebrating the launch of British Airways’ Boeing 787 Dreamliner direct flights between Hyderabad and London.In March 2014, British Airways launched its state of the art Boeing Dreamliner on five of its seven weekly direct flights between Hyderabad and London Heathrow. The inaugural flight to Hyderabad carried a special commemorative plaque honouring Amitabh Bachchan; the first time British Airways has bestowed such a prestigious accolade.
“The launch of this aircraft unites two of my favorite destinations – Hyderabad and London. London, a city abuzz with breathtaking contrast, and Hyderabad, a city that glorifies cultural vibrancy. British Airways’ attention to detail, global connectivity and personalised services makes the airline perfect for the comfort of my family and me,” said Bachchan in the video.
The collaboration with Bachchan highlights British Airways’ rich history, continued commitment, and success in India.
“We are truly honoured to have the great Amitabh Bachchan commemorate the launch of our Boeing Dreamliner to Hyderabad, one of India’s most important and vibrant cities,” said Christopher Fordyce, Regional Commercial Manager, South Asia, British Airways.
