CRAWLEY, ENGLAND (BNO NEWS) -- British Airways is to increase the number of flights to the Caribbean starting from March 27, 2011 due to the success of its long-haul leisure routes departing from London Gatwick, the company said.

Flights to Barbados will increase from 10 to 12 services a week, Antigua will increase from five to six services a week and the St Lucia - Port of Spain service will increase to daily flights from five a week.

The new route to Cancun, Mexico, to be launched in November 2010, is increasing from two to three services for summer 2011.

British Airways is also increasing its flights to Tampa from five to seven a week, providing customers with the perfect gateway to visit Florida's Gulf Coast to enjoy holidays in Florida.

Another highlight recently announced includes a new direct flight to Buenos Aires rather than via Sao Paulo. Buenos Aires and Sao Paulo will have their own daily direct flights from 2011 on. Currently the route stops first in Sao Paulo before going on to Argentina's capital.
