BA cancels all flights from Leeds Bradford Airport

British Airways has cancelled all its flights from Leeds Bradford airport to London Heathrow. The airline is dropping a number of routes as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, which will see its network shrink. A spokesperson for BA said: “We are sorry to suspend our flights to Leeds Bradford after many years. We regularly evaluate our routes based on where our customers tell us they want to travel. We remain committed to connecting businesses, families and friends right across our UK network.” or many years the Leeds Bradford to Heathrow route was operated by British Midland, which later became BMI. It dropped the link in 2009, citing lack of profitability. BMI was later subsumed within British Airways. BA re-launched the service between Leeds Bradford and Heathrow in 2012. But the route has always struggled commercially. <br/>
