British Airways Adds Three Routes as London Airports Change
British Airways has reshuffled its summer 2027 schedule with three new European routes and two services switching London airports. The changes bring more direct options for holidays in Norway, France and Croatia, while Skiathos and Perugia passengers will need to travel to different airports than before. That detail could matter as much as the airfare, particularly when arranging trains or airport transfers.
Five Summer Routes and Holiday Prices
- Airlines: British Airways; BA Cityflyer operates the Scottish routes. Package prices per person:
- Heathrow–Bergen: 15 Apr–30 Oct; five weekly; fly-drive from £349pp.
- Glasgow–Nice: 16 May–3 Oct; weekly; six-night holidays from £1,959pp.
- Edinburgh–Split: 15 May–19 Jun and 4 Sep–2 Oct; weekly; seven nights from £1,099pp.
- Heathrow–Skiathos: 20 May–11 Sep; three weekly; seven nights from £1,359pp.
- London City–Perugia: 1 May–28 Sep; up to five weekly; fly-drive from £429pp.
Airport changes could affect transfer costs. Skiathos moves from London City to Heathrow Terminal 5; Perugia switches the other way, with Saturday flights initially and four additional weekday services from 21 May. Bergen flights use Heathrow Terminal 3, with connections timed for several US cities. Glasgow–Nice departs on Sundays, but its return flight operates on Saturdays. Check dates and terminals before booking.
Bergen provides a base for fjord cruises and walks around its Bryggen waterfront. The new Glasgow link puts Nice and nearby Riviera towns within reach without a change of plane, while Edinburgh passengers gain direct access to Split and Croatia’s islands. Skiathos offers beaches and boat trips, and Perugia makes a useful starting point for exploring Assisi and other towns in Umbria.
The advertised prices are for British Airways Holidays packages, not standalone flight tickets, and apply to selected dates for two people sharing. Book by 1 December 2026, subject to availability; a checked bag is included, while other inclusions vary by package. Edinburgh–Split also pauses between late June and early September, so it will not suit every summer holiday. Compare ground transfers and package terms before committing.
