British Airways is launching new shorthaul and longhaul routes from Heathrow from 29-Mar as part of the new summer season. The airline will start flights from Heathrow to the southern French city of Toulouse and Atlanta, the gateway to the Deep South in the US.
British Airways' customer director, Silla Maizey said: "We are opening up these new routes to Heathrow after moving them from Gatwick and are confident that with the combination of T5 and our fantastic full onboard service and low prices, they will be very popular with customers.
"Business users will find the flights to Toulouse now more convenient than ever and by moving our flights to Atlanta from Heathrow, our customers will have smoother connections and far better access to the rest of our global network."
The flight moves from Gatwick to Heathrow are part of a larger series of changes to the summer 2009 flying schedule which include resuming flights to Riyadh and Jeddah on 31-May.
Lead in fares to Heathrow's new routes, starting with Toulouse, including all taxes and charges, start at GBP133 return in Euro Traveller, and GBP341 return in Club Europe.
Return flights to Atlanta from Heathrow, including all taxes and charges, start at GBP332,50 return for World Traveller and GBP1,396.50 return for Club World, if booked before 07-Apr.
Flights to Riyadh, including all taxes and charges, are GBP394.40 for World Traveller and GBP1,358.40 for Club World, while customers wanting to travel to Jeddah can expect to pay GBP394.40 in World Traveller and GBP1,358.40 in Club World, for their return flights.
