In a welcome move for British holidaymakers, British Airways has announced that it is resuming flights to 17 destinations in August. Due to Covid-19, the airline will follow continued low frequencies on the routes.

Other destinations on the list include Paphos, Bodrum, Pula, Islamabad, Nairobi, Frankfurt, Bari, Antigua, Catania, Bastia, Nairobi, Figari, Kefalonia, Malta, Luxemborg, Genoa and Lyon .
