British Airways Increases London-Barbados Capacity

This summer, British Airways is expanding its London-Barbados service.

For the season, a brand-new Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner is being used on the route from Gatwick, and Heathrow is seeing an increase in frequency.

There are eight additional seats in the first-class cabin, 48 in business class, 35 in premium economy, and 165 in economy on this four-class aircraft which will be used by British Airways on the London-Barbados route.

Neil Chernoff, the Chief Planning and Strategy Officer said, “As British Airways celebrates its 70th year of connecting London and Barbados, we are thrilled to be increasing capacity on the route with a larger aircraft and the launch of a new double daily service from Heathrow. 

“This is a testament to the popularity of the route from a leisure and business perspective, and its importance as a link for visiting friends and relatives. 

“Our commitment to this special destination remains as strong as ever, and we are proud to offer unparalleled connectivity and convenience for our customers.”

Cheryl Carter, Barbados Tourism Marketing UK director, said, “We are truly honoured that British Airways has chosen to deploy its prestigious Dreamliner 787-10 aircraft to Barbados. 

“This shows BA’s confidence in the robust passenger demand for travel between the UK and Barbados.”
