UK flag carrier, British Airways has launched a New Years sale, with prices slashed by over 20 percent in the airlines World Traveller (economy) and World Traveller Plus (premium economy) cabins to celebrate increased regional demand.
With the sale ending on January 25th, Middle East passengers can take advantage of reduced fares to popular destinations in Europe and the USA. Fares are available for travel until September 30th 2011 and the prices start from BHD 228 and include taxes, charges and service fees.
London and New York continue to be the most popular destinations from the region and passengers from the UAE can fly from Bahrain to New York – via London Heathrow – for just BHD 379.
“Traffic from the region remained robust throughout 2010 and we remain committed to offering our customers competitive fares and value for money. With these special offers, British Airways is making some of the most famous cities in the world more accessible,” said Paolo De Renzis, British Airways’ Area Commercial Manager, Middle East.
“And it’s not just outbound. We’ve seen a lot of customers from America and Europe transit through London before heading to Bahrain. The region’s unprecedented growth and development is undoubtedly making a significant contribution to the ever-increasing load factors we have experienced.”
