BA completes launch of low-fares to Europe
British Airways has cut fares to many European destinations, including Spain, Greece, Turkey, Belgium and Italy, by up to 80%.
Prices will fall by up to 80 per cent on British Airways’ flights to Spain, Turkey, Greece, Cyprus, Belgium, Czech Republic, Hungary and Luxembourg from tomorrow (Thursday 29 August), completing the launch of year-round low fares on 170 key routes to Europe by the airline.
Saturday night stay and advance purchase restrictions have now been scrapped for new lower year-round air tickets on 41 new routes including 12 new domestic routes operated by British Airways’ wholly owned subsidiary British Airways CitiExpress.
Fully inclusive prices start from £69 return from London to Brussels and £99 return from London to Barcelona, Madrid and Bilbao.
Martin George, British Airways Director of Marketing said: “We are the first airline to offer a full service at no frills prices on almost 6,500 flights a week, putting us firmly back on the agenda for air travel to Europe.
“Already, we have seen passenger numbers increase by 16 per cent on flights to Holland and Scandinavia and on domestic routes from London since we started to launch our new low fares in the Spring.”
