CURRENT INTERNATIONAL CARRIERS
AER LINGUS
Aer Lingus serves Philadelphia with a daily flight from Dublin International Airport. These flights are conducted onboard leased Air Contractors B757-200 aircraft, and have been for as long as Aer Lingus has served Philadelphia.

BRITISH AIRWAYS
British Airways, the United Kingdom's flag carrier has been one of Philadelphia International's longest tenured visitors. As part of OneWorld alliance, Speedbird operates two daily flights, with a 747 day flight and a 787 red eye. It isn't unusual to find a 767 or 777 subbing as well.

ICELANDAIR
Icelandair is somewhat the new kid on the block in Philadelphia. Icelandair recently added service to PHL from Keflavik Intl., with Boeing 757-200s. As of 2018, the 757s have been replaced by 737-MAX8 aircraft, but 757s still fly fill-ins every now and then.
LUFTHANSA
Lufthansa has had a presence at Philadelphia International for almost as long as British Airways. While Lufthansa changes equipment to Philadelphia frequently, it is never uncommon to receive unexpected aircraft rotating through Philadelphia.

QATAR AIRWAYS
Qatar Airways has made quite a name for itself in Philadelphia. When it was unveiled as a new destination in 2014, people were skeptical, but Qatar's direct route to Doha expanded from a Boeing 777-200 up to an Airbus A350-900XWB in a matter of two years.
