British Airways Expands US Routes: New Travel Options

April 21, 2026

Great news for travelers planning multi-destination trips! British Airways has just launched new direct flights from London to St. Louis, making it the airline’s 27th US destination. The British flag carrier is also now flying direct to Guernsey in the English Channel.

While these routes don’t directly connect to Israel, they’re worth knowing about if you’re planning a longer European or US trip before or after visiting Israel. Many of our clients love combining their Israel adventure with stops in London or other European cities.

British Airways continues to be a popular choice for travelers heading to Israel, with connecting flights through London Heathrow to Ben Gurion Airport. The airline promises to announce another new destination later this summer in what they’re calling a “sought-after tourist country.”

If you’re considering a multi-stop journey that includes Israel, these expanded route options could help you create the perfect itinerary. Our team at IsraStar Tours can help coordinate your Israel portion with any international travel plans you have in mind.
