London City winter Balearics

British Airways CityFlyer at London City Airport says its service to the Balearic Islands has proved so popular that it is adding more this winter. 

Clearly its convenience to Canary Wharf is proving ideal for members of that community looking for a short break.  The 10 minute gate check-in prior to departure time also helps.

The winter schedule, from 27 October, will offer five flights a week direct to Ibiza, increasing from two last winter, and a doubling of the Majorca services to give four flights a week.  With Ibiza, CityFlyer is the only scheduled airline offering direct flights from the UK to Ibiza during the winter months.  As a BA subsidiary CityFlyer fares includes free 23kg luggage allowance, on-line check-in and seat selection 24 hours before departure and complimentary food and drink on board.  

British Airways recently celebrated 10 years at London City Airport.  On 30 June it will be 30 years since the Planning Inspector Michael Montague Smith and his aviation advisor Air Vice-Marshal CB Young took to the air from Heron Quays (Canary Wharf) in a Brymon Airways Dash 7 flown by Harry Gee and Richard Saw to prove the airport concept. www.ba.com/ibiza www.ba.com/palma
