British Airways has announced three new European routes launching in April 2027, alongside several changes to existing services. The new flights will operate from London Heathrow Airport, Edinburgh Airport and Glasgow Airport, offering travellers more choice for the year ahead.
New services from Heathrow, Glasgow and Edinburgh
From April 15 to October 30, 2027, a new service will operate between London Heathrow (LHR) and Bergen (BGO), Norway, with five flights per week. The route is designed to support onward connections to US destinations including New York, Boston, Miami and Chicago, as North America traffic to Bergen has increased by almost 50% since 2019.
From May 15 to October 3, 2027, a new once-weekly service will operate between Glasgow (GLA) and Nice (NCE), France. Scotland will also gain a new once-weekly Mediterranean route, operated by BA Cityflyer, between Edinburgh (EDI) and Split (SPU), Croatia. This service will run from May 15 to June 19, 2027, and again from September 4 to October 2, 2027.
Airport changes for existing routes
From May 20 to September 11, 2027, a service will operate between London Heathrow (LHR) Terminal 5 and Skiathos (JSI), Greece, with three flights per week, moving from London City Airport. From May 1 to September 28, 2027, a service will operate between London City (LCY) and Perugia (PEG), Italy, with five flights per week, transferring from Heathrow.
British Airways said these moves will “better align capacity and connectivity with customer demand.”
Expanding the European network
Neil Chernoff, British Airways’ Chief Planning and Strategy Officer, said: “We’re delighted to be expanding our European network with new routes and convenient airport moves, offering customers even more ways to explore some of Europe’s most exciting destinations.”
He added: “From Norway’s spectacular fjords and the beaches of Skiathos to the rolling countryside of Umbria, the glamour of the French Riviera and Croatia’s stunning Adriatic coast, these additions provide greater choice and connectivity for customers planning their next summer trip.”
