While British Airways is not using the Airbus A380 to Los Angeles this northern summer, it is expected to return this winter. Now scheduled and bookable, it will lift off at the end of October and operate through the season. Things could, of course, change.
BA A380 to Los Angeles
The double-decker quadjet will operate daily from October 29th, the first day of the northern winter season. The schedule is as follows, with all times local. Heathrow is Los Angeles’ number one international market.
- London Heathrow to Los Angeles: BA269, 15:15-19:35
- Los Angeles to London Heathrow: BA268: 21:50-15:10+1
It replaces the 777-300ER, which operates BA269/BA268 during the summer. The shift means that each departing flight will now have 469 seats rather than the previously planned 254, an 85% increase.
There will be 14 first class seats (+6; +75%), 76 in Club World (+21, +28%), 55 in World Traveller Plus (+15, +38%), and 303 World Traveller(+173, +133%).
