British Airways summer programme

Readers are reminded that BA is set to make a number of changes to its summer 2013 schedule (from 31 March) including a new route, terminal changes and frequency increases.

The airline will introduce flights from Heathrow to Ibiza from 27 April thanks to the popularity of the services the airline already operates to the Mediterranean island and from both London City and Gatwick airports.  This is in addition to new Spanish routes from Heathrow to Palma (starting 31 March), from Gatwick to both Lanzarote (starting 31 March) and Tenerife (starting 29 March). 

The airline will also move its new Heathrow flights to Leeds Bradford and Zagreb from Terminal 1 to Terminal 5, also at the start of the summer season.  The Leeds schedules have changed with the northbound flights at 07:55, 12:35 and 19:30, and southbound at 09:30, 15:05 and 21:15, better timings to meet connections.

On the airline’s long haul network, Almaty will receive a non-stop service from 2 April, moving from Terminal 1 to Terminal 5 and benefiting from the introduction of a three-class aircraft.  As previously noted BA will also start flights from Gatwick to Sri Lanka from 31 March, and Chengdu China from 22 September. www.ba.com
