British Airways has launched an Economy sale on short haul routes from London Heathrow, Gatwick and City Airport, competing with the low cost carriers on price while keeping BA’s full service touches. These are standard BA Economy (Euro Traveller) flights, so you typically get a more traditional airport experience than the bare bones fares elsewhere, which can matter if you value smoother connections or want a clearer cabin baggage policy.

Who is this for?

Best suited to weekend breaks and quick work trips where you want to travel light but still have the option of checking a bag. BA’s short haul fares usually include a cabin bag and a small personal item, and this sale also highlights a 23kg checked allowance on selected fares, which can swing the value if you would otherwise pay extra with a budget airline.

  • Departures from: Heathrow, Gatwick, London City
  • Cabin baggage: typically hand luggage plus a small personal item
  • Checked bag: 23kg allowance mentioned on the sale fare, check the fare rules before booking
