BRITISH AIRWAYS ADDS THIRD DAILY FLIGHT BETWEEN NEWARK AND HEATHROW
BRITISH AIRWAYS IS TO LAUNCH a new daylight service between New York’s Newark airport and London Heathrow this summer.
Starting from June 6 the new service will depart Newark at 0755, arriving into London at 1955, with the US-bound leg departing Heathrow at 1910, landing into New York at 2200.
The flight will be operated by a B777-200 aircraft, fitted with BA’s new Club Suite in business class.
