From October 2026, British Airways is strengthening its commitment to the state by introducing a new daily service between London Heathrow and Baltimore/Washington International Airport
The enhanced service provides year-round daily connectivity between the UK and Maryland for the first time, creating easier access for British travellers and more opportunities for fam trips for agents.
Return fares lead in from £524 for the new direct service.
The boost also comes at the perfect time for the state as Maryland’s tourism partners, including Maryland Office of Tourism, Visit Baltimore, Visit Annapolis & Anne Arundel County, and Visit Frederick, are launching a coordinated marketing campaign to amplify the destination to global markets.
Cassandra Vanhooser, managing director of the Maryland Office of Tourism, said, “Gone are the days when travellers treated Maryland as a secondary stop. Well‑priced fares, increased frequency, and a growing list of compelling reasons to visit mean consumers are now choosing BWI as their primary arrival point, with nearby cities such as Washington, DC, Philadelphia, and New York becoming easy day trips by train. Maryland’s landscapes, communities, and character now lead the experience with the outstanding tourism product and increased flight capacity.”
