British Airways | Official Website

British Airways operates a fleet of 130 widebody aircraft, including 18 Airbus A350-1000s. This places it as the joint second-largest operator of this aircraft type globally, alongside Cathay Pacific and behind Qatar Airways. All of British Airways' A350-1000s are configured with 331 seats, featuring 56 Club Suites, 56 World Traveler Plus seats, and 219 World Traveller seats.

The airline's A350-1000s are scheduled to fly from London Heathrow to 17 destinations between June and December. These destinations include Accra, Austin, Cape Town, Delhi, Dallas/Fort Worth, Denver, Hong Kong, Las Vegas, Mumbai, Nairobi, Philadelphia, Phoenix, São Paulo, Tokyo Haneda, Toronto, Vancouver, and Washington Dulles.

- Accra will have daily year-round flights.

- Austin will see winter seasonal flights starting October 26.

- Cape Town is served daily during the summer until October 25.

- Delhi will have mainly daily flights throughout the year.

- Dallas/Fort Worth resumes service on October 26 with the A350.

- Denver has summer seasonal flights until October 25.

- Hong Kong maintains a year-round daily schedule.

- Las Vegas also enjoys year-round daily service.

- Mumbai sees the A350 from July 27 to August 31 and again from October 26.

- Nairobi has up to ten weekly flights in peak summer months before returning to daily service.

Nairobi emerges as the destination with the most frequent A350 operations from Heathrow. The route features up to ten weekly services during peak months and is operated exclusively by the A350 since its introduction in 2023.

In contrast to previous years' schedules:

Bengaluru and Buenos Aires (via Rio de Janeiro) no longer receive A350 services but are instead served by the Boeing 777-200ER. San Diego transitions from double-daily summer service using different aircraft types to a single daily flight in winter with the same model.

Flights to Dallas/Fort Worth mark a return for British Airways after previously operating there with an Airbus A380 until March. American Airlines had increased its summer flights on this route following BA's temporary suspension.

Overall changes reflect adjustments in British Airways' deployment strategy for its widebody fleet across various global markets.
