Cirium data was used to compare BA's LHR network in 2025 with what is available in 2026.

This process identifies the following seven additions. While unlikely, others may materialize for the upcoming winter. After all, on July 28, BA revealed that it'll fly from LHR to Fuerteventura for the first time,

replacing BA EuroFlyer from LGW.

     St Louis International Airport (STL). STL last had flights to London in 2003, when American Airlines operated to LGW, having inherited the route from TWA. British Caledonian operated from LGW to STL in the more distant past. Along with the temporary operation from LHR to Orlando International Airport (MCO), and the start of flights to Tampa International Airport (TPA),

BA will serve a record 27 US airports from LHR this year.
