MILESTONE: LOT Polish Airline Celebrates 40 Years of New York-Warsaw Travel

40 Guests Win Free Roundtrip Premium Economy Tickets to Poland

Last night LOT Polish Airlines celebrated its 40th anniversary of flying between JFK-New York and Warsaw in high-style at the Grand Hyatt New York’s Empire Ballroom in midtown Manhattan.  Guests were treated to serving stations for a sumptuous roast, classy side dishes and hor d’oeuvres.

North American Sales Director Frank Joost led the audience through the evening with LOT’s new promotional video, a history of the Airlines and a video detailing the features of LOT’s new fleet of B-787 Dreamliners. 

LOT’s flight crew offered guests a chance to experience the full-reclining position of the seating offered in Business Class. The eighteen seats in the Elite Club section can be set to a lying position – allowing the traveler a comfortable complete sleep in preparation for meetings upon arrival. 



CEO Sebastian Mikosz greeted the audience and relayed exciting plans and prospects in the future of the Airlines.

A special 40th anniversary fare promotion available through October 11 was unveiled (http://pajtoday.blogspot.com/2013/10/travel-lot-celebrates-with-big-winter.html).  Through a random drawing 40 lucky guests who left business cards in a bowl upon entrance, received a free roundtrip ticket in the new Premium Economy section.

An anniversary cake was cut and guests departed with gift bags of products from Poland’s Inglot cosmetics line which has a boutique in New York’s Times Square.

LOT Polish Airlines has been connecting Poland with the rest of the world since 1929.  Today, LOT’s fleet of 36 aircraft serves over 50 destinations across Europe, the Middle East North America and Asia.  Serving 1,328 airports in 195 countries across the globe, LOT is in a position to continue its growth and reputation as a European carrier with a global network.
