British Airways has unveiled its new lounge in San Francisco, the third US lounge to benefit from the airline’s £6.5 billion (US$8.2 billion) investment plan for its customers, following the recent opening of its First and Club lounge at New York JFK’s Terminal 7.

British Airways has opened its new Club lounge at New York’s JFK airport. It completes a £52 million investment, following the unveiling of a plush new space for First customers in autumn last year.

British Airways has unveiled its anticipated new Business Class seat – ‘Club Suite’ – and confirmed it will arrive on the first of its A350 aircraft in July.

International Airlines Group (IAG) – the parent company of British Airways, Iberia and Vueling – has confirmed an order for 18 Boeing 777-9 aircraft, plus 24 options, for British Airways.

British Airways has officially opened the doors to a luxurious new First lounge at New York’s JFK Terminal 7 to gold cardholders and customers travelling in the airline’s First cabin on the airline’s most coveted route across the Atlantic.

British Airways is investing $8 billion Australian dollars on a multitude of brand new aircraft, including the carbon-composite Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner, along with upgrades to the airline’s existing fleet, in-flight product, lounges, catering, wi-fi and apps.

“The UK must remain one of the world’s best-connected and outward-looking countries and a third runway at Heathrow is the best option to deliver this,” said the UK’s Transport Secretary Chris Grayling.

The White Company bedding on British Airways includes a luxuriously soft large pillow and white cotton pillowcase to enhance customers’ comfort and help them sleep better in the sky. Customers will also receive a super-soft woven blanket with satin trim, a luxury duvet, and a padded mattress cover to provide them with an extra layer of comfort and improve their quality of sleep.

As part of British Airways’ investment plan, the airline is set to revamp lounges across its network, starting with the opening of a new lounge in Rome’s Fiumicino Airport. The lounge follows a new design concept for the airline featuring the best of British and European design.

The new flight, which will operate three times a week, will be British Airways’ first flight to Canada from Gatwick.

As part of its £4.5 billion investment to benefit its customers, British Airways is set to revamp lounges across its network, starting with the opening of a new lounge in Rome’s Fiumicino Airport. 

British Airways customers travelling in Club World business class between London Heathrow and Australia will soon be able to take advantage of the airline’s partnership with luxury lifestyle brand, The White Company.
