British Airways’ all business class subsidiary OpenSkies will start service between Paris-Orly Airport and Washington-Dulles Airport in May.

Washington will be the second U.S. city served by Open Skies since it began service between Paris and Newark-Liberty Airport last summer.

The airline will use a Boeing 757 aircraft with 72 business class flat-bed seats for the service. The Paris-Washington flight will operate five times per week, and British Air says it will increase the frequency in the coming months.
