CINCINNATI, June 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- British Airways (BA) today announced it has officially arrived at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) with the airline's inaugural flight from London Heathrow Airport (LHR) touching down just before 7:30 p.m. local time. The Ohio city becomes the 27th American destination served by British Airways and further advances the United Kingdom flag carrier's position as the largest overseas airline in the United States.
The central Cincinnati metropolitan area – straddling the Ohio River – is spread across southwestern Ohio, northern Kentucky and extends into portions of southeastern Indiana. This unique positioning introduces British Airways' superior service to an all-new region of the United States home to more than 11 million people within a 120 mile radius of Cincinnati's airport.
"When we look at the Cincinnati region we see a vibrant part of the U.S. with a great mix of business and leisure travelers who have long asked for more international service and global connectivity, which is what made it so attractive to us and why we're confident this new route will be a success," said Neil Chernoff, director of networks and alliances, British Airways. "Our incredibly positive and welcoming conversations with the airport team, the business development community and tourism partners – combined with all the region has to offer visitors from outside the U.S. – were a clear sign that Cincinnati was the right place to expand our flying in America."
Cincinnati-based customers are now just a convenient nonstop flight away from the U.K.'s capital city and all the iconic landmarks and attractions London has to offer. From some of the most well-known like Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Tower Bridge and Buckingham Palace to hip hot spots like Borough Market, Shoreditch, Battersea and Notting Hill, there's something for every kind of explorer. Cincinnati's corporate community also benefit from service to one of the world's key business centers.
Additionally, British Airways offers convenient connections onward from its home at London Heathrow's Terminal 5 to nearly 200 destinations in 65 countries around the world, including routes with its partnership airlines. The arrival of British Airways links Cincinnati to the globe unlike any other airline in the region.
