Flights between BWI, London to expand in winter 2026
British Airways announced last week a network expansion that includes more frequent flights between BWI Marshall Airport and London Heathrow Airport.
The flight service will run daily, up from six times per week, according to a news release. The change is set to take effect in October.
Baltimore joins New Orleans and Houston as American destinations where the airline plans to increase flight frequency.
“No matter what day you want to head to London, we’ll have you covered,” a BWI social media post reads.
As part of its network expansion, British Airways also announced the addition of two new destinations: Melbourne and Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Other popular international routes that will see more frequent flight service under British Airways’ network expansion include Cape Town; Tokyo; Barbados; Kingston, Jamaica; and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, among others.
Other airlines are also expanding international options. On Feb. 7, Southwest Airlines launched flights from BWI to St. Thomas in the Caribbean.
“Together, these changes represent a significant investment in our long-haul leisure network, adding even more options and choice for our customers,” said Neil Chernoff, British Airways’ chief planning and strategy officer, in the release.
“Elsewhere, we know there is short-term demand as a result of the situation in the Middle East. To support customers with alternative routes from popular destinations we have already launched additional flights, and we will continue to monitor customer demand and add flights to our schedule if we’re able to do so.”
