New route to St. Louis

Two new routes took to the skies this week, as the first flights to St. Louis, Missouri in the US, and Guernsey in the Channel Islands departed from London.

St. Louis became the 27th US destination to join our network, as the inaugural flight to the ‘Gateway to the West’ landed. 

We are the only UK airline to offer direct flights to St. Louis, in a launch that coincides with the 100th anniversary of Route 66, which runs through the city, and the country-wide celebrations for 250 years of American Independence. With nearby Kansas City serving as one of the World Cup host cities, St. Louis is also an easy jumping-off point for fans heading to the action this summer.  

Operating four flights a week from London Heathrow Terminal 5 during the summer season, the route is served by Boeing 787 fleet, currently being upgraded with Starlink, the fastest Wi-Fi in the sky. Customers can choose from three cabins: World Traveller (economy), World Traveller Plus (premium economy), and Club World (business).
