ATLANTIC AIR SERVICE.
COMMERCIAL ZEPPELINS. By Telegriph—Piess Association—Copyright. Itenter’a Telegrams, (Received October 9, 3.10 p.ra.) LONDON, October 8. The first of two commercial Zeppelins will be ready for flight across the Atlantic early in the new year. They are described as air liners, capable of carrying 500 persons The initial fares are expected to range from £IOO to £l5O, but later are expected to be lowered to £6O. The Zeppelin Company expresses the opinion Hint a big air liner, with reasonable patronage, should not demand a faro much in excess of the first-class steamship rate. Furthermore, that the flight from London to New York should average fortyeight hours.
