Return bookings for the London-Los Angeles flight start at €632 for Economy and go up to €2,796 for Business Class. The London-Hong Kong route will be launched on November 15. A return trip will set passengers back €614 in Economy and up to €2,087 in Business Class.

The British Airways A380 will be able to carry 469 passengers including 14 in First Class and 97 in Business Class. A Superior Economy Class (55 seats) will also be available.
