British Airways switches Kos route from Heathrow to Gatwick

The route will fly three times weekly, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays, from May 15 through October 26, increasing BA’s Greek destinations to 12.

It will be operated by Airbus A319 and A320 aircraft out of Gatwick’s south terminal, with economy fares leading in from £70 and business £222.

Seats are available to book now. Fares can be reduced by using Avios part payment.
