British Airways<\/strong> announced this Thursday a reinforcement of its Summer 2026 schedule, with a significant increase in frequencies to long-haul destinations from its London Gatwick and Heathrow bases. The British airline aims to offer its customers greater flexibility and options when planning their next holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bangkok: Year-Round Flights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Thai capital will cease to be a seasonal destination. Starting summer 2026, British Airways will operate three weekly flights from Gatwick to Bangkok year-round, increasing to six weekly frequencies in the winter. This represents a notable expansion compared to the previous schedule, which was focused solely on the winter season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this move, the company will add almost 60,000 additional seats and strengthen its codeshare alliance with Bangkok Airways, enabling seamless connections to Phuket, Phnom Penh, and other points in Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamaica: Increased Capacity to the Caribbean<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The route between London Gatwick and Kingston, Jamaica, will increase to four weekly flights in summer 2026, up from the current three frequencies. According to the Jamaica Tourist Board, the country expects to welcome five million visitors before March 31, 2026, reflecting a strong tourism recovery. With this reinforcement, British Airways will add over 300 weekly seats and consolidate its position as the British airline with the longest history in the Caribbean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
