British Airways to launch flights from Gatwick to Sharm

British Airways will begin flying from Gatwick to Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt from September 2015.

Holiday-makers will be able to choose from two flights a week to the diving holiday hot-spot. Flights will increase to three times a week during the winter months offering even more options and flexible flying times.

Colm Lacy, British Airways’ Head of Commercial at Gatwick, said: “Sharm El Sheikh is only five hours away and it’s a popular choice with families, and a favourite with divers thanks to its crystal clear waters.”

Fares start from £219 return, including taxes and charges, and return hand baggage only fares start from £199, including taxes and charges.

Flights to Sharm El Sheikh will operate on British Airways’ fleet of Airbus A320 aircraft from Gatwick.
