BA adds ramp transfers for short-connecting premium passengers
As part of its premium-product revamp, British Airways is to offer airside transfers for business-class passengers who are at risk of misconnecting. The service, Premium Transfer Drive, will be available at London Heathrow for passengers connecting from UK domestic services to short-haul flights in business class (Club Europe); long-haul premium cabins (Club World and First); and silver- and gold-tier Executive Club members. BA will track these connecting passengers and, if they are at risk of missing their onward flights, automatically provide an airside car transfer. BA is fitting its short- and long-haul fleets with Wi-Fi over the next 2 years. “As Wi-Fi is introduced on our aircraft, we’ll also be able to use that to communicate directly with customers about their onward flight,” BA said. <br/>
