British Airways to pause flights to Beijing
British Airways will halt flights to Beijing from October 26 but continue flights to Shanghai and Hong Kong.
British Airways (BA) is to halt flights to the Chinese capital. BA saidit will pause its route to Beijing from 26 October, but continue daily flights to Shanghai and Hong Kong.
It’s a surprise, as BA had only resumed flights to Beijing in June 2023, four times a week, after pausing early in the Covid-19 pandemic.
British Airways first flew to China in 1980, and last year described Beijing and Shanghai as “important routes”.
