British Airways Expands London Heathrow with exciting Lineup for Summer 2026

British Airways Expands London Heathrow with exciting Lineup for Summer 2026

British Airways is clearly in its “collect ’em all” era, because next summer it’s adding two more pins to its ever-growing London Heathrow network: Tivat (yes, Montenegro’s glamorous little seaside stunner) and Guernsey (the Channel Island you’ve definitely heard of but may struggle to locate on a map after two glasses of wine).

Both destinations are sliding into Heathrow’s schedule like they’ve been there all along — and honestly, good for them.

First Up: Tivat — Montenegro’s Summer Diva

Starting 14 May 2026, BA will whisk you from Heathrow Terminal 3 to Tivat three times a week, perfectly timed for that moment in May when British weather gaslights you into thinking summer might be coming.

Tivat is the gateway to Montenegro’s jaw-dropping Bay of Kotor — a place so beautiful it looks like someone photoshopped mountains into the Mediterranean and nobody questioned it. It’s also the type of spot where superyachts outnumber supermarkets, so pack your best sunglasses and prepare to feel mildly underdressed at all times.

Next Up: Guernsey — Cute, Charming, and Now Connected Directly to Heathrow

Launching 19 April 2026, BA’s new year-round service from Terminal 5 gives Guernsey a shiny new status:
the ONLY direct Heathrow-to-Guernsey flight in existence.
Which is a polite aviation way of saying, “You’re welcome, island.”

Now you can get from the UK’s busiest airport to cliff walks, beaches, and afternoon teas with cream that could probably power a Boeing 777 if needed. It’s perfect for a quick escape from London or for anyone who wants to feel like they’ve travelled far without actually… travelling far.

London Heathrow Network Level-Up: Almost 100 Destinations

With Tivat and Guernsey joining the party, BA’s short-haul network from Heathrow is now hovering just shy of 100 destinations. That’s nearly triple digits of “Should we go here? How about here? Oh look, another place we can fly to instead of doing our laundry.”

These additions follow other recent BA moves, including:

  • New service to Graz, for anyone who likes mountains but prefers them with a side of Austrian charm
  • An upcoming long-haul route to St. Louis, proving BA’s range truly extends from island escapes to Midwest barbecue territory

In other words, BA is doing that thing where you start adding trips to your calendar the same way you add snacks to your shopping basket — impulsively, enthusiastically, and with zero regrets.

So What Does This All Mean?

It means Summer 2026 is shaping up to be a choose-your-own-adventure moment, courtesy of British Airways.

Want dramatic coastline, yacht-spotting, and a bit of Balkan sparkle? Tivat.
Prefer charming villages, coastal walks, and a place where cows have a PR team? Guernsey.
Or maybe you just want an excuse to say “My flight departs Terminal 3, but I connect back through Terminal 5”? Live your truth.

Either way, BA’s expanding Heathrow network is giving travelers more choice, more convenience, and more destinations to accidentally mispronounce at the check-in desk.

Summer 2026 just got a little more interesting — and a lot more flyable.
