Based on that information, the airline will fly for the first time from Heathrow to the Kosovan and Montenegrin capitals, Pristina and Podgorica, with both flights departing on Saturdays from July 4 thru August 29.
The city of Podgorica is a gateway to Montenegro’s turquoise waters and surrounding mountains, while Kosovo, Europe’s newest country in the heart of the Balkans welcomes visitors with charming towns and incredible hiking opportunities.
A brand-new route to Perugia in Italy, which is located among the spectacular mountains and enchanting hill-towns of Umbria will also launch next summer, the report indicates. Flights will depart on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays from July 2 through to August 31.
According to the report, Turkish coastal towns, Dalaman and Bodrum are added back on to British Airways’ Heathrow route map, giving customers who want to explore the popular Aegean Coast even more choice.
These flights will join a new summer service between London Gatwick and Antalya that takes off from April 30.
Customers will also have the choice of two London airports when flying to Dalaman as the airline already operates a weekly service from Gatwick.
The Greek island of Rhodes, with its blend of sandy beaches, rocky coves and ancient charm offers travelers a pocket of Grecian paradise and will also be added to the airline’s Heathrow network from next summer. The Saturday service will commence on July 4 and will run until August 29.
