BA restarting Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok flights

Thursday, 06 Mar, 2024 1

British Airways is set to resume two key nonstop routes to Southeast Asia.

BA will restart Bangkok flights from October.

The airline will operate three direct Bangkok flights a week from London Gatwick on Boeing 777-200ER aircraft.

The following month sees the return of direct Kuala Lumpur flights on Dreamliner aircraft.

This route will depart London Heathrow daily.

British Airways is also returning to Abu Dhabi on April 20, as well as welcoming Agadir in Morrocco on March 31 and adding Izmir in Turkey to its network on May 18.

At the same time, British Airways announced a comprehensive £7 billion transformation plan across many areas of the business.

CEO Sean Doyle outlined the modernisation plan, covering the onboard experience, updated IT systems and focusing on sustainability.

“We’re on a journey to a better BA for our people and for our customers, underpinned by a transformation programme that will see us invest £7 billionn over the next two years,” Doyle said.

BA will overhaul its website and app offering more personalization.

Initial changes will start to roll out by the end of the year.
