About British Airways
British Airways is the United Kingdom's national flag carrier with its headquarters in London's Heathrow Airport. In fact, Heathrow Airport is the hub for British Airways. The airline is known to be the second largest in the United Kingdom with respect to fleet size and passenger traffic. The airline follows UK-based regional airline EasyJet, which is a low-cost airline with its headquarters at London Luton Airport. Back in 2011, British Airways and Iberia (Spain-based airline) formed a merger to create International Airlines Group (IAG), a holding company with its registration in Madrid, Spain. International Airlines Group is known to be the third-largest airline group in the world with respect to annual revenue. It stands at the second position in the Europe continent. IAG is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is also listed in the FTSE 100 Index (Financial Times Stock Exchange or Footsie). British Airways managed to become the first-ever airlines to generate a revenue of over USD 1 billion out of passenger traffic on a single route, in a year. The international route in question here is the New York-JFK - London-Heathrow route.
The airlines came into existence in 1974, after an aviation board called British Airways Board was established by the British Government. The main idea behind the genesis of the government body was to manage the two national airline corporations, British Overseas Airways Corporation and British European Airways as well as two regional airlines namely, Cambrian Airways and Northeast Airlines. In 1974, the four airlines were merged to form a solo airline named British Airways. The airline was managed by the government for about 13 years following the merger but eventually was privatised in 1987. British Airways is also known as one of the founding members of the airline alliance, Oneworld, along with Cathay Pacific, American Airlines and Qantas.
Although British Airways' main hub is at Heathrow Airport, a major presence of the airlines can also be witnessed at Gatwick Airport. In fact, the airline also has a base in London City Airport, where its subsidiary, BA Cityflyer operates from. Major international routes are connected through British Airways and operated from Heathrow Airport. In fact, British Airways owns about 40 per cent of slots at the Heathrow Airport in London. After the formation of British Airways, following the merger of the former four airlines in the United Kingdom, the aircraft was given a new look with white, blue and red colour schemes. At the same time, a stylised version of Union Jack was painted on the tail fins. The same was designed by Negus and Negus. However, after many alterations and changes, the CEO of British Airways, Bob Ayling, in 1999, announced that the planes flying under the airlines would adopt the tailfin design of Chatham Dockyard Union Flag that was initially supposed to be used only on the Concorde aircraft. Since then, all the aircraft have been given the Chatham Dockyard Union flag livery.

About British Airways
British Airways is the United Kingdom's national flag carrier with its headquarters in London's Heathrow Airport. In fact, Heathrow Airport is the hub for British Airways. The airline is known to be the second largest in the United Kingdom with respect to fleet size and passenger traffic. The airline follows UK-based regional airline EasyJet, which is a low-cost airline with its headquarters at London Luton Airport. Back in 2011, British Airways and Iberia (Spain-based airline) formed a merger to create International Airlines Group (IAG), a holding company with its registration in Madrid, Spain. International Airlines Group is known to be the third-largest airline group in the world with respect to annual revenue. It stands at the second position in the Europe continent. IAG is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is also listed in the FTSE 100 Index (Financial Times Stock Exchange or Footsie). British Airways managed to become the first-ever airlines to generate a revenue of over USD 1 billion out of passenger traffic on a single route, in a year. The international route in question here is the New York-JFK - London-Heathrow route.
The airlines came into existence in 1974, after an aviation board called British Airways Board was established by the British Government. The main idea behind the genesis of the government body was to manage the two national airline corporations, British Overseas Airways Corporation and British European Airways as well as two regional airlines namely, Cambrian Airways and Northeast Airlines. In 1974, the four airlines were merged to form a solo airline named British Airways. The airline was managed by the government for about 13 years following the merger but eventually was privatised in 1987. British Airways is also known as one of the founding members of the airline alliance, Oneworld, along with Cathay Pacific, American Airlines and Qantas.
Although British Airways' main hub is at Heathrow Airport, a major presence of the airlines can also be witnessed at Gatwick Airport. In fact, the airline also has a base in London City Airport, where its subsidiary, BA Cityflyer operates from. Major international routes are connected through British Airways and operated from Heathrow Airport. In fact, British Airways owns about 40 per cent of slots at the Heathrow Airport in London. After the formation of British Airways, following the merger of the former four airlines in the United Kingdom, the aircraft was given a new look with white, blue and red colour schemes. At the same time, a stylised version of Union Jack was painted on the tail fins. The same was designed by Negus and Negus. However, after many alterations and changes, the CEO of British Airways, Bob Ayling, in 1999, announced that the planes flying under the airlines would adopt the tailfin design of Chatham Dockyard Union Flag that was initially supposed to be used only on the Concorde aircraft. Since then, all the aircraft have been given the Chatham Dockyard Union flag livery.
