The director of Wilmington International Airport has confirmed that a planned service between there, Bermuda and London won't be taking off.

The Wilmington Star-News reported Jon Rosborough yesterday as saying that the route to the North Carolina airport, proposed in 2005 by boutique airline Fly First Class, would not happen. "It's dead," he said.

The Royal Gazette reported last August that Fly First Class, which called itself a luxury boutique airline, appeared to have folded.
