The lack of transatlantic air service from Pittsburgh International Airport ended in early June when nonstop flights to and from Paris, France on Delta Airlines began. And Howard Hanna quickly called for reservations - more than a hundred of them!

Howard Hanna Real Estate is proud to be supporting Pittsburgh’s new airline service to Europe – the non-stop Delta flight to Paris’ Charles De Gaulle International Airport.

Annually for the past twenty years, the Hannas and “Hanna Travel” reward their sales associates with three levels of trips they can achieve based on their annual production. The top level trip to Paris, France will be five nights and six days during March of 2010.

Interviewed by KDKA-TV2 on Wednesday, June 10th, 2009 at the company’s corporate headquarters, Helen Hanna Casey revealed the trip locations making special note of the company’s dedication to the new non-stop Delta flight to Paris.

“As a Pittsburgh-based business, we thank Delta Airlines for believing in our great city – direct international service will only make business opportunities here better. We want to make it easy for people from everywhere to be able to get here easily!” said Casey.

President of Howard Hanna Real Estate Service, Helen Casey is also a board member of the Allegheny Conference on Community Development which has been focused on restoring non-stop transatlantic service since 2004. Offering an assurance to Delta Airlines through the year 2012, the Conference has pledged more than $4 million should revenue on the Pittsburgh to Paris flights fall short.

Von A. Campanella, Delta’s District Sales Manager for the Northeast United States was elated to learn that Howard Hanna Real Estate is one of the many companies headquartered in western Pennsylvania that have immediately recognized the value and time savings flying Delta Air Lines from Pittsburgh nonstop to Paris. “We look forward to working with Howard Hanna Real Estate on this incentive trip to Paris and to working with all of the other corporate and leisure customers who are eager to fly nonstop to Paris or connect beyond to major cities in Europe, Africa and India.”

While in France, Hanna travelers will not only tour the great highlights of Paris itself, but also a trip to Reims, the capital city of Champagne, for a private tasting of “the bubbly”. Hanna Travel’s theme this year is “Celebrate – you’re great!” and the celebrating will be great in Champagne, France.

Other highlights of the Hanna trip to France will be: lunches at charming bistros, a private gala at the stately mansion, Pavilion Dauphine, in the Bois de Boulogne, shopping and lots of site seeing.

Hanna Travel’s other destinations in 2010 will be to the Caribbean and the Nemacolin Woodlands Resort. Cruising in the Caribbean will be aboard the Royal Caribbean ship, Monarch of the Sea, on a three night/four day all inclusive cruise with private island excursions, special themed receptions and plenty of fun in the sun. Each Hanna Traveler will be greeted with a bottle of champagne as they board the ship.

The Nemacolin Woodlands Resort trip will be a respite to Howard Hanna agent’s busy days. In the woodlands of southwestern Pennsylvania, Howard Hanna and the Nemacolin resort always come up with something special for the trip. There will a champagne and truffle tasting, gourmet cooking classes, golf and luxurious afternoons at the spa.
