Vueling announces two new routes from London Heathrow
Vueling has announced two new flights from London Heathrow to Barcelona El Prat and Paris Orly, marking what the low-cost Spanish airline describes as ‘a significant expansion of [its] footprint beyond its main UK hub at London Gatwick’. Two flights a day will operate from Heathrow to Vueling’s primary hub, Barcelona El Prat, taking its total daily number of London to Barcelona flights to 10. Services to Paris Orly represent a brand new route for the airline, which describes the introduction of daily flights as ‘especially well timed for the upcoming Paris Olympics’. Both routes will commence services from April 7 2023. “We are delighted to relaunch operations from London Heathrow, UK’s largest airport,” said Carolyn Prowse, chief commercial, customer, network and strategy officer at Vueling, adding that Paris Orly – the airline’s second largest operating base – is currently not served from Heathrow at all. “This relaunch has been possible thanks to our strong collaboration with British Airways,” she concluded.
