British Airways upgrades economy services

Report by Louise Longman

BRITISH Airways is upgrading its economy service on domestic routes in a bid to attract more higher-paying passengers.

From March 1, BA will allow full-fare economy passengers, those in booking class C, D and Y, to access its executive Terraces lounges at Manchester, Heathrow and Gatwick.

Passengers will also be able to pre-book seats up to 48 hours in advance, a service not available to other economy passengers.
