It's not just a new president who will be heading to Washington, D.C. next year: a record number of Brits are set to fly into the US capital as British Airways ups its twice-daily service to a thrice-daily one for spring and summer 2025
The additional flight, taking to the skies from March 30th, 2025, has been introduced "to provide travellers with more options to explore," according to chief planning and strategy officer Neil Chernoff.
Elliott L. Ferguson, II, president and CEO of Destination DC, added that the service "reiterates the importance of Washington, D.C., as a gateway destination to the United States," continuing, "The UK remains a priority for Washington, D.C. tourism, as it is DC’s number one overseas market. As an economic development organisation, we can expect additional airlift to lead to increased opportunities for visitation.
"We’re excited to work closely with British Airways and the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority to make access to the city even easier and more comfortable for travellers wishing to explore iconic landmarks only found in Washington, D.C."
