BA shakes up summer schedule
British Airways is dropping flights from Heathrow to Dakar and Kolkata together with Gatwick services to Dublin, Zurich and Geneva this summer.
The Geneva service is suspended for the summer only.
BA is moving daily flights to Atlanta and a twice daily Toulouse service from Gatwick to its Heathrow hub in time for the start of the summer schedule on March 29.
The summer flying schedule also includes resuming flights to Riyadh and Jeddah on May 31.
BA customer director Silla Maizey said: “We are opening up these new routes to Heathrow after moving them from Gatwick and are confident that with the combination of T5 and our fantastic full onboard service and low prices, they will be very popular with customers.
“Business users will find the flights to Toulouse now more convenient than ever and by moving our flights to Atlanta from Heathrow, our customers will have smoother connections and far better access to the rest of our global network.”
Fares start at £133 return in Euro Traveller to Toulouse, and £341 return in Club Europe.
Return flights to Atlanta from Heathrow, including all taxes and charges, start at £332.50 return for World Traveller and £1,396.50 return for Club World, if booked before April 7.
Flights to Riyadh, including all taxes and charges, are £394.40 for World Traveller and £1,358.40 for Club World, while Jeddah costs £394.40 in World Traveller and £1,358.40 in Club World.
