Bangkok

Following the popular addition of Bangkok last year, British Airways has confirmed that it will begin operating year-round flights from London Gatwick to Bangkok, upgrading the route from its previous winter-only schedule.

Starting in summer 2026, services to and from Bangkok will operate three times per week and the airline will operate six weekly flights during the winter season, representing a significant increase in winter flights, reflecting the airline’s commitment to meeting the growing demand for travel to Southeast Asia.

Overall, the flag carrier is set to offer nearly 60,000 additional seats for customers looking to visit Bangkok next year and with the airline’s recent expansion of its codeshare partnership with Bangkok Airways, customers can now connect seamlessly across the Pacific to Phuket, Phnom Penh and beyond.

An additional weekly service to Kingston, Jamaica, from London Gatwick has been announced. British Airways will fly four flights per week for the summer 2026 season.

According to the Jamaican Tourist Board, the island is preparing to welcome five million tourist arrivals by March 31, 2026, reflecting a strong resurgence in leisure travel across the region and with the additional flights, the airline is adding over 300 seats weekly for customers travelling between Jamaica and London. British Airways is the Caribbean's longest-serving UK airline.
