British Airways to launch new winter flights from Gatwick

British Airways has confirmed that its 2009-10 winter season will include new flights from Gatwick Airport.

The airline announced that it would launch additional services to Bermuda, Barbados, St Lucia and Port of Spain, all of which will see increases in their weekly frequency.

These extra flights are in addition to the new routes that British Airways will be launching from Gatwick to Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, the Maldives, Sharm el Sheikh and Innsbruck.

Travellers will also be able to make use of new flights to Las Vegas that British Airways is set to launch from Heathrow Airport.

Richard Tams, the airline's head of UK and Ireland sales, said: "We have some exciting new routes in our winter schedule and extra services to popular sun spots like the Caribbean.

"With our all-inclusive competitive fares including complimentary check-in, baggage allowance and refreshments on board, there has never been a better time to fly."

British Airways has also confirmed that it will go ahead with its plans to launch a business class-only service to New York from London City Airport in September.
