British Airways gears up for new Gatwick flights

British Airways is preparing to launch a host of new flights from Gatwick Airport over the next few months.

As previously announced by the airline, it is set to introduce new summer routes to Alicante, Antalya, Faro, Genoa, Gibraltar, Ibiza, Malaga, Malta, Palma, Paphos, Poznan and Tunis from the London hub.

All new flights will launch on March 30th, apart from those to Antalya, Genoa, Ibiza and Paphos, which will begin in the period between April and July.

The carrier is also gearing up to start new flights from London City Airport to Amsterdam, Barcelona, Nice and Warsaw and from Heathrow Airport to Malaga.

"As one of the only short-haul, full-service carriers at Gatwick, we combine low fares with complimentary food and drink, pre-allocated seats and the opportunity to join the British Airways Executive Club," commented Robert Boyle, commercial director at British Airways.

The airline recently announced that it is continuing to see demand for its long-haul premium flights grow.
