BA Upgrades LHR-Tel Aviv Service

British Airways is gearing up to upgrade it services between London Heathrow and Tel Aviv, Israel, by putting its wide-body B787 and B777 aircraft onto the route.

From October 25, the airline will operate its Dreamliner on flights BA163 and BA162 everyday except Thursdays and Sundays (outbound) and Mondays and Fridays (inbound).

When not operating the Dreamliner, the flights will be operated by the B777-200 aircraft.

The biggest advantage of these additions is that these aircraft offer Club World seating – which is not currently available – as well as premium economy cabins.

Flight BA163 departs Heathrow at 2230, arriving at Tel Aviv at 0515 the next morning, while the return leg departs Tel Aviv at 0735 and lands at Heathrow at 1100. www.ba.com
