Tickets go on sale for first Terminal 5 flights - on a BA A380 (?!)
from the Travelmole newsletter:
Tickets for the first flights from London Heathrow's Terminal 5 go on sale today.
BA is making around 75,000 tickets available for passengers wanting to travel on one of the A380 flights that will fly into and out of the £4.3 billion terminal on March 27 2008, its first day of operation.
The first flight to take off will be the BA302 to Paris and the first arriving flight will be BA026 from Hong Kong.
Robert Boyle, BA commercial director, said: "Customers buying these first tickets for T5 will have the chance to be part of this once in a lifetime opportunity."
Perhaps they were misinformed about the A380? Or is there a cunning plot?
