British Airways will resume daily flights to Abu Dhabi next year following a four-year hiatus, Abu Dhabi Airports announced on Friday.

Booking is now available for the Abu Dhabi-London route that will be operating from April 20, 2024. The new flight between London Heathrow and Abu Dhabi International Airport’s new Terminal A will be operated by a Boeing 787-9 aircraft.

Neil Chernoff, British Airways’ director of Network and Alliances, said: “Abu Dhabi is a unique destination that is making a very welcome return to our network. With a blend of beach, city, and desert, it has everything our customers are looking for in a Middle Eastern trip.”
