London Air Travel » British Airways News & Operational Updates »

Here are short haul routes suspended by British Airways from London City, Gatwick and Heathrow airports over the past ten or so years.
This list does not include routes that have moved between London airports, as happens frequently at Gatwick and Heathrow. It also does not feature any routes previously operated by BA and its former franchise partners from UK regional airports.
This list is very much work in progress. It will be updated regularly. If you know of any additions or omissions, please contact us!
For BA’s current short haul route network, please see our dedicated network pages for London City, Gatwick and Heathrow.
