British Airways expands US route network for summer
British Airways is ramping up its US route network this summer, taking the number direct US routes to London to 26.
Portland, Oregon is the newest destination on the British Airways route map, which is the city’s only direct link to the UK.
The new route operates five times per week – Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.
Neil Chernoff, British Airways’ Director of Networks and Alliances said: “This summer we’re excited to be adding Portland.
“This new route also opens a wide variety of connections for our customers.”
British Airways offers codeshare connections to several destinations operated by oneworld partner Alaska Airlines from Portland
BA also relaunched its direct route from Pittsburgh to London.
It remains the only airline to offer a direct flight.
It will resume a year-round four-per-week service.
On June 6, the airline launches a new, daytime flight from Newark Airport to London Heathrow – its third daily flight.
This summer also marks the return of daily direct flights from San Jose, California, to London on June 13; and the return of A380 service to more North American airports.
