During its busiest ever summer, which saw it scheduled to carry over 4 million customers across its network in August alone, British Airways has revealed some of the most popular holiday destinations for travellers.

Top in the list of busiest routes are destinations such as New York, Los Angeles, Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong, Malaga, Nice, Amsterdam, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Customers have been getting in the summer holiday spirit, this year more than ever, with 212,000 bottles of wine consumed across all British Airways flights in July, up 3% on last year.

Meanwhile, those in Club Europe or Club World and First looking for something extra-special to kick-start their trip consumed 105,000 bottles of Champagne, again up five per cent.

British Airways offers customers the option to pre-order from a range of 13 complimentary special meals for specific dietary requirements.

Over 360,00 special meals were pre-ordered in July, of which nearly 37,000 were vegan meals – up 32% on the same period last year. On top of this nearly 5,000 meals were low-calorie.

With flights available 355 days in advance, customers can already begin planning their next summer getaway.

Customers can benefit from British Airways’ £4.5bn investment plan for customers including new catering in Club World and World Traveller as well as refreshed lounges.
