On Thursday (December 29, 2022), British Airways announced the launch of new daily service between London Heathrow (LHR) and Florence (FLR) starting April 16, 2023. Flight 525 will depart Heathrow’s Terminal 5 at 07:50 and will arrive in Florence at 11:00, while the return flight, BA 524, departs Florence at 11:50 and arrives in London at 13:05. Located in central Italy, Florence is known for its Renaissance art scene, stunning architecture and delicious Tuscan cuisine. The city is also in close proximity to Bologna and Pisa, providing a convenient starting point for those wishing to explore further afield.


In Thursday’s announcement, British Airways’ Director of Networks and Alliances, Neil Chernoff, said,


“We know our customers love visiting Tuscany, which is why we already operate flights from London City to Florence. We’ve added this new route from London Heathrow to the Tuscan capital to offer them even more choice to explore this incredible Italian region. Not only is this good news for UK travellers, but also for those connecting in London to and from US destinations. The flights’ timings have been optimised for connectivity to popular routes, including New York, Boston and Chicago.”
