US Airways to offer new service between Edinburgh and Philadelphia

A new non-stop flight between Edinburgh and Philadelphia is to be launched by a major airline next year.

The scheduled service will be operated daily by US Airways between May and October. It was welcomed by ministers and tourism chiefs.

They said it was a "timely vote of confidence in Scotland" as it prepares to host the Commonwealth Games and the Ryder Cup in 2014.

A 176-seat dual-class Boeing 757 aircraft will be used on the route.
