British Airways boosts Thessaloniki-London route with up to 21 weekly flights

Summer schedule includes multiple daily departures to Heathrow, Gatwick and London City, with up to four flights on peak days

British Airways is increasing capacity on the Thessaloniki-London route, raising frequencies to as many as 21 flights per week across London's Heathrow, Gatwick and London City airports. 

The move improves air connectivity between northern Greece's largest city and the UK, a key market for tourism and business travel, with the expanded London schedule set to support both inbound tourism and outbound travel during the peak summer period.

According to the airline's published schedule, flights will operate daily with multiple departures. Heathrow and Gatwick account for the majority of services, with London City included on Sundays. On several days, passengers can choose between two or three departures, offering greater flexibility for short stays, business trips and onward connections.
