British Airways

British Airways is the UK's flag carrier, operating its main hub at London Heathrow alongside services from Gatwick and London City. It belongs to the oneworld alliance and to International Airlines Group, and its loyalty programme earns Avios that can also be used with partners such as Iberia, Aer Lingus and Qatar Airways. Long-haul cabins include First, Club (business), World Traveller Plus (premium economy) and World Traveller, with the Club Suite on many but not all aircraft. Short-haul Euro Traveller fares include a hand-baggage-only option. BA also sells flight-and-hotel packages through British Airways Holidays. It suits travellers starting in the UK or connecting through London. Check the aircraft cabin, fare type and baggage allowance, and compare Avios earning on the booked fare before paying.
