Extend Australia Flights to Orient NEW YORK—A new pat tern of American-flag air serv ices linking Australia, Indo nesia and Hong Kong was inaugurated by Pan Am on Oct. 29. The new services result from an extension of Pan Am’s pres ent Los Angeles-Sydney flights beyond Australia to Djakarta and Hong Kong. The new flights provide: • Pan Am’s first service from the United States and Australia to Djakarta and Hong Kong via the South Pacific. • A new round-the-world routing via the nyd-Pacific or South Pacific. • A circle tour of the Pacific basin with a typical routing being Dos Angeles-SydneyDjakarta-Hong Kong-TokyoLos Angeles. Pan Am’s new services are an important contribution to tourism and trade throughout the South Pacific and particu larly in Indonesia and Hong Kong, Norman P. Blake, sen ior vice-president of traffic and sales, said. (Continued on Page 5) IHC, BOAC Plan Hotels for Britain LONDON — BOAC and Inter-Continental Hotels Cor poration are considering a plan to develop several new hotels in Britain. BOAC and Inter Continental will first make a survey based on a program for providing some 5,000 first class and economy class hotel rooms in Britain. These will con tribute some of the extra ac commodations needed in the 1970’s to cope with the growth in air travel that will coincide with the introduction of the high capacity jets. A separate feasibility sur vey will be made for each hotel project to determine the profit potential before going ahead. One of the first projects to be studied is a proposed 1,000 bedroom economy class hotel at Victoria, London in partner ship with British European Airways and British Rail. BOAC is ready to invest $8,400,000 initially in the Brit ish hotel program with Inter Continental putting up $4,200,000. If other companies invest in individual projects this 2-1 ratio in equity between BOAC and Inter-Continental will still be preserved. Inter-Continental will provide the services need ed to design, build and equip the hotels. And with the ex ception of the hotel proposed for Victoria, Inter-Continental will normally manage them when they are opened. All the hotels will be linked with Inter continental’s worldwide hotel reservation and sales systems. Sir Giles Guthrie, BOAC’s chairman commented: “We foresee a shortage of 30,000 hotel rooms in the U.K. in the 1970s. If these hotel rooms are not provided, travellers will go elsewhere, BOAC will lose business, and the country valu able foreign currency. We be lieve the sort of hotel we have in mind will attract a great many guests during the winter as well as the peak summer season.” BOAC has already announc ed investments in hotels to be built in association with other groups in Guyana, Mauritius, Kenya and Ceylon. And earlier this week came the announce ment of an investment in a new hotel to be built in Kingston, Jamaica. Other projects under study are in the South Pacific, the Caribbean, Africa and the Indian Ocean area. This is not the first time Inter-Continental Hotels has been associated with an airline other than Pan American in a specific project. Pakistan In ternational Airlines is a share holder in the owning company of the properties in Pakistan —Karachi, Dacca, Lahore and Rawalpindi. Aer Lingus is in volved in the three Irish hotels in Dublin, Limerick and Cork. It has been Inter-Continen tal’s policy to work with the local agencies of the host coun try thus creating new hotels that are oriented to their local, and for which the citizens of the country can develop a strong affinity. Inter-Continental Hotels currently owns and operates 39 hotels around the world, in cluding the newly opened Inter-Continental Hotels inLahore and Rawalpindi, Pakis tan, and the Hotel Inter Continental Quito. In 1968 Inter-Continental will open .hotels in Auckland, Dusseldorf, Victoria Falls, Ma nila, Nairobi and Papette.
