BA to Move its Additional Flights to T5 in June

BAA and British Airways confirmed that the first phase of the move of additional flights into Heathrow Terminal 5 will take place in June. Services to and from eight long-haul destinations will be switched from Terminal 4 to Terminal 5 on June 5.

These flights include services to and from New York JFK. The other seven destinations are Abuja, Bangalore, Beijing, Cairo, Cape Town, Lagos and Phoenix.

British Airways flies eight times a day to New York JFK, and provides a daily service on the other routes. All these flights operate currently from Terminal 4. Combined, they amount to about a quarter of the airline’s Terminal 4 schedule.
