British Airways has confirmed it has suspended summer 2025 flights from Southampton Airport.

The news comes just four months after BA announced two new routes from the city, to Bergerac and Majorca for next summer, operating under its BA City Flyer subsidiary.

BA confirmed the decision after reports passengers had been contacted at the weekend to say their flights had been cancelled.

The airline said: “We are suspending our summer 2025 operations from Southampton Airport and contacting any affected customers with options including rebooking on an alternative flight with us or another airline or a full refund.”

BA didn’t say why the flights had been suspended.

A spokesperson for Southampton Airport told the BBC: “Clearly it’s disappointing when any route is removed.

“However, we are in constant dialogue with airlines regarding the introduction of new services and that includes backfilling the routes withdrawn by British Airways.”
