BA switches Texas flights to T5
British Airways is to switch flights to Dallas Fort Worth and Houston from Gatwick to Heathrow Terminal 5.
The change of airports will start from March 30, 2008 when the transatlantic “Open Skies” aviation agreement starts.
The airline will offer a daily flight to Dallas Fort Worth and two flights a day to Houston, all of which will be operated with Boeing 777s.
BA currently also flies from Heathrow to Houston via Detroit but all flights to Texas will be non-stop from March 30, 2008.
Commercial director Robert Boyle said: “Open Skies allows us to fly non-stop from Heathrow to Dallas Fort Worth and Houston for the first time.
While these routes have been well served from Gatwick, moving to Heathrow makes it easier for our customers to transfer on to our global network via our new home at Terminal 5.
“Among the sectors to benefit will be the oil and gas industry as business travellers will be able to transfer with greater ease at Heathrow between Texas and destinations such as Lagos, Luanda and the Middle East.”
