BA announces new Greek route from London City
British Airways is launching a new three-times-a-week service from London City to Skiathos.
But flights from London City to Angers in France will stop due to air traffic control restrictions, and flights to Hamburg are also being withdrawn for commercial reasons.
Skiathos is the third Greek Island route from London City, alongside Mykonos and Santorini, but the first time BA has operated to Skiathos.
In addition, Mykonos flights will increase from four to five flights a week.
The new Skiathos route will start on June 26 and operate during the peak summer weeks until September.
Basic one-way fares from £79 are available to book from today.
Earlier this week BA also announced the launch of a new weekly service between London City and Manchester from May. These flights will go on sale on February 21.
