The airline’s BA Euroflyer subsidiary will launch flights on 2 November, operating twice a week initially but rising to three a week in 2024. Fuerteventura will join Tenerife, Lanzarote and Gran Canaria as the fourth Canary Island served by the short-haul airline.
Flights will operate twice weekly on Thursdays and Sundays on a mix of Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft. A third flight will be introduced on Wednesdays from 28 February 2024.
Fuerteventura is the second largest Canary Island, known for its dune beaches, and is a year-round destination for water sport enthusiasts, with conditions favouring surfing, sailing and windsurfing.
Lead-in economy return fares are £129, with those booked by 18 June from £114.
Flights include a Club Europe business class option with pre-flight lounge access, more personal space, a full meal with drinks from the bar and additional baggage allowance.
Tom Stoddart, BA Euroflyer chief executive, said: “Adding Fuerteventura means we now fly to the four largest Canary Islands, which are great options for families, couples and friends alike.
"Fuerteventura enjoys warm weather year-round, so it is a great option for those looking for winter sunshine without travelling further afield.”
Fuerteventura is the seventh new service to be added to Euroflyer’s route network this year. The airline recently announced new summer flights to Montpellier, Corfu, Mykonos and Salzburg plus new winter services to Sharm El Sheikh and Innsbruck.
