News / More seamless experience for connecting customers at London’s Heathrow
Throughout the summer season, American Airlines will co-locate up to 11 daily flights in Heathrow’s Terminal 5, offering more convenient connections for customers traveling on Atlantic Joint Business partner British Airways and other oneworld partners
Beginning March 27, American Airlines will further expand its presence in London Heathrow International Airport’s (LHR) Terminal 5 by co-locating up to 11 daily flights for the summer season. This move allows American Airlines customers connecting on Atlantic Joint Business partner British Airways, as well as other oneworld Alliance® carriers, to enjoy a more seamless experience between the partner carriers and more convenient access to British Airways’ six premium lounges.
Through October 30, American’s flights between LHR and Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW), Los Angeles (LAX), Miami (MIA) and New York (JFK) will arrive and depart from Terminal 5. As a result, customers connecting on British Airways’ flights at Terminal 5 to destinations around the world will be able to take further advantage of established reciprocal benefits while enjoying unprecedented flexibility and a truly seamless connecting experience when traveling across airlines.
The move will bring the Atlantic Joint Business partners, including Iberia, even closer together, building off recently announced plans for all three carriers to co-locate operations at JFK’s Terminal 8 beginning December 1.
As Atlantic Joint Business partners, American and British Airways offer the most flights and the most competitive schedule for customers traveling between the United States and London compared to any other partnership.
American’s flights between London and Boston (BOS), Charlotte (CLT), Chicago (ORD), Philadelphia (PHL), Phoenix (PHX) and Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina (RDU), will continue to arrive and depart from LHR’s Terminal 3.
