British Airways announced recently that it will add new ‘sunshine’ routes to Heraklion and Rhodes, Greece, to its 2015 Gatwick summer schedule.

Other routes launching for summer 2015 will include Cagliari in Sardinia and Bodrum and Dalaman in Turkey.

From December this year, new winter sun and ski destinations will include Fuerteventura, Friedrichshafen and Grenoble.

Also, Seville in Spain, Funchal in Madeira and Las Palmas in Gran Canaria will all be available to book from today, and the first flights will take to the skies from March 2015.

Colm Lacy, British Airways’ Head of Commercial for Gatwick, said: “We’re delighted to be offering our customers more choices to popular holiday hot-spots. With so many new routes from Gatwick, our customers will have greater choice with even more value-for-money holidays to choose from, whether it’s a family break or a short weekend trip away.”
