• British Airways unveils No One Flies Like Her, a new campaign celebrating the England women’s rugby team as national icons and British Originals 
• Created by British Airways’ in-house Creative Studio, the campaign captures members of the Red Roses team in motion, reflecting their strength and spirit 
• Elsewhere, the airline is celebrating the tournament by showing live matches in its lounges and expanding its inflight entertainment on board to include more women’s sport content 

British Airways has unveiled its latest multi-channel partnership campaign, No One Flies Like Her, a high-flying tribute to the England women’s rugby team, the Red Roses. The new campaign comes just ahead of the Red Roses taking to the global stage on home soil. 

The campaign celebrates the players as national icons and their legacy, championing originality and those shaping British culture. 

Under the creative concept No One Flies Like Her, the campaign comes to life in striking out-of-home visuals and paid social media content that will appear across the UK from 22 August, coinciding with the Red Roses’ first match. 

The campaign is a national shout-out strategically placed near stadiums, major rail stations and roadside sites. The visuals feature powerful portraits of Red Roses players, captured in motion to reflect their strength and spirit, showing them as the incredible athletes that they are.  

Primarily black and white, with simple and considered use of colour, the artwork features the England Rugby rose in full colour – a symbol of the team’s identity and a tribute from one British icon to another. 

Calum Laming, British Airways’ Chief Customer Officer, said: “At British Airways, we know what it means to carry the flag, and are so very proud to share this honour with the Red Roses. This campaign is a tribute from one British Original to another and aims to inspire future teams to rise. 

“Our long-standing partnership with England Rugby is incredibly special to us and we continue to support the teams both on and off the pitch. We wanted to help tell the team’s story in a way that’s bold, proud and unmistakably British Airways, and we wish them all the luck in the world in the forthcoming tournament.” 

Claudio Borges, Executive Director of Commercial and Marketing at the RFU said, ‘‘We are delighted to partner with British Airways and see their continued support of the Red Roses at an exciting time for Women’s rugby. The No One Flies Like Her campaign brilliantly celebrates our players as the national heroes they are and helps in our shared ambitions to reach new audiences and grow the sport’’. 

The campaign is supported by a series of activations across the British Airways customer experience, designed to make fans feel part of the team’s journey and story.  

Before take-off  

From 22 August, live matches will be shown on TVs across British Airways’ Heathrow lounges, which will be specially decorated with red roses. Colouring sheets of the key campaign visuals will be available for younger fans in Heathrow’s Skyflyer Kids Zones during the final week of the tournament. Customers will also be able to enjoy rose-inspired cocktails in First and Concorde lounges. On the afternoon of the final match, Hummingbird Bakery’s Red Velvet cupcakes will be available at British Airways’ T5 Club Lounges. 

On board 

A curated selection of women’s sport content will be available to watch on board, including the O2 Inside Line series, and a rose amuse-bouche will be served for customers travelling in First. 

High-flying partnerships  

British Airways is also partnering with The Good, The Scaz & The Rugby  podcast to deliver a bespoke branded segment, High Flyers, spotlighting standout Red Roses players throughout the campaign. The segment will run weekly across social and podcast platforms, reinforcing the airline’s commitment to women’s sport and its support of the Red Roses. As part of this partnership, British Airways has produced a special episode featuring Emily Scarratt, who will be taking to the world stage for the fifth time in her Red Roses career – a first in the team’s history. 

The campaign follows the recent launch of the British Airways Spaces for All Fund, a joint initiative with England Rugby dedicated to supporting grassroots rugby clubs over the next three years. More than 10 local rugby clubs have benefited from the airline’s investment so far, with funds being used to improve their facilities to welcome more people into rugby and create a welcoming environment that is more accessible and inclusive for women and girls.

• British Airways underlines ambition to expand flights to India during landmark UK Government ‘Britain Means Business’ trade mission led by Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
• The airline will introduce a third daily flight between London Heathrow and Delhi in 2026, subject to regulatory and capacity approval.
• The popular First cabin will return on flights from London to Mumbai this month with the latest business class Club Suite on select flights across all five Indian routes by the end of 2026.

British Airways has reaffirmed its ambition for network growth in India as the airline facilitated a major UK Government trade mission – led by Prime Minister Keir Starmer – to the country.

The airline will introduce a third daily flight between London Heathrow and Delhi in 2026, subject to regulatory and capacity approval, and will look for further growth opportunities in the country as trade between the UK and India increases.

Around 130 top UK CEOs and senior government ministers flew out to the country on a chartered British Airways flight on Tuesday as part of a trade mission designed to boost trade links and business between the two countries.

The trip to Mumbai follows the signing of a Free Trade Agreement between Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his Indian counterpart, Narendra Modi, in July.

Sean Doyle, Chairman and Chief Executive of British Airways, said: “I am delighted to take part in this important trade mission. Our ties with India were established over 100 years ago and today we have around 2,500 British Airways colleagues based there. We’ve been steadily increasing capacity between the UK and India over the years and we’re now operating 56 direct services to five Indian cities each week. 

“The Free Trade Agreement with India will boost economic momentum between our two countries and British Airways really sits at the centre of that activity, acting as an enabler for increased trade. We will develop our own network alongside increased economic activity so the FTA for our business is very good news. 

“As the airline that offers the biggest network of any European carrier into the North Atlantic, we also help connect India to the US and beyond, so when you add this factor into the mix, there’s a lot to be excited about for our two connected economies.” 

Prime Minister Keir Starmer, said: “British Airways has been connecting the United Kingdom with India for more than a century – a symbol of the enduring partnership, and deep cultural and economic ties between our two nations.

“As our landmark trade deal paves the way for new opportunities for businesses, our national flag carrier will play a critical role in strengthening trade links with India, boosting UK growth and helping deliver on our Plan for Change.”

British Airways has been flying to India for more than 100 years and this month celebrates 20 years of flying to Bangalore. In addition to a third daily flight between London Heathrow and Delhi, the popular First cabin will return on flights to Mumbai this month, with the latest business class Club Suite on select flights across all five Indian routes by the end of 2026.

The added frequency will give customers travelling to India more choice and flexibility, whether they’re visiting loved ones, discovering a new city, or travelling for work.  

British Airways has also rolled out a brand-new Meet and Assist service for free for customers who require additional support travelling from India to the UK to help make travel less stressful.

The service has been used by around 5,500 customers since launch in March. It is available across all five Indian airports that the airline operates from and colleagues who are fluent in local languages such as Hindi, Punjabi, Telugu and Tamil, have undertaken dedicated training to deliver this proposition.

The airline continues to invest in its overall customer experience and has already rolled out over 900 initiatives as part of its £7 billion transformation plan, from brand-new short-haul seats and free Wi-Fi messaging on board, to refreshing lounges across its global network.

British Airways has taken delivery of its 1st Boeing 787 in over two years. Since taking delivery of its 1st two Boeing 787-10s in the space of a week, the British flag carrier hasn’t taken any further 787s, with brand-new aircraft going to desert storage in California instead.

Boeing resumed 737 MAX deliveries in late 2020, though it wasn’t long before the company had another issue on its hands. While the Boeing 787 Dreamliner model wasn’t grounded as a whole, the American planemaker halted deliveries of its latest widebody for more than a year. Now, deliveries have resumed again, with American Airlines taking the first 787 since.

I booked flights to Tampa, Florida along with car hire on the British Airways website in March 2022. The total cost was £4,300 and I put down a £250 deposit.

Soon after I thought I would check if prices had moved and less than a month later, I found I could book the exact same package for £500 less.

It seems that the drop in price is down to a big reduction in the cost of car hire for my dates.
