British Airways Launches Thrice Daily Flights Between London City Airport and Munich

British Airways has launched thrice daily flights from London City Airport to the Bavarian beer capital of Munich.

British Airways now offers four German routes from London City, with each-way hand baggage only fares to Munich from £64 based on a return journey.

Luke Hayhoe, British Airways’ general manager commercial and customer, said, “Germany is such an important destination for both business and leisure customers, so the addition of Munich to our schedule has been welcomed by everyone who flies from London City. With well-timed frequent flights there are plenty of options for customers who either want to do a day trip or stay for longer. Munich complements our existing flights to Berlin, Dusseldorf and Frankfurt and means that we now fly 82 return flights a week to Germany this winter. The new route will increase the number of British Airways’ destinations from London City Airport to 34.”

Earlier this year, British Airways increased frequency to Berlin from the Docklands airport to 18 return flights a week.

Richard Hill, Chief Commercial Officer at London City Airport, said: “Munich is a German powerhouse of a city, attracting leisure and business travellers alike. Its gaining popularity is reflected in the frequency of this new three-times-a-day British Airways service, which makes travel between Munich and the centre of London easier and quicker thanks to the convenience of London City Airport.”

British Airways is investing £6.5 billion to improve its customer experience over the next five years, including new aircraft, new cabins, new catering, new lounges, WiFi, and new routes.
