The airline’s service to the Florida destination will operate three times a week. BA also resumes flights from Gatwick to Orlando on Friday (19 November).
Claire Bentley, British Airways Holidays managing director, said: “Orlando and Tampa are among our most popular destinations, so we know how much our customers are looking forward to heading back.”
BA plans to operate to 23 US airports this winter, with 246 flights a week from January. As well as Tampa and Orlando from Gatwick, flights to Nashville and New Orleans will restart in December from Heathrow.
The airline is also set to add Dallas to its Airbus A380 route network at Heathrow from 27 March.
Before this, the airline’s A380s will touch down in the US once again with a flight to Miami from Heathrow from 5 December and Los Angeles from 9 December.
