British Airways launches free cab service at Heathrow

A complimentary black-cab and executive car service at Heathrow Airport has been established by BA. The new offering, which was been launched on a three-month trial basis, is available to those first class and business class customers flying into Terminal 5 who live within 100 miles of the airport. A fleet of 3,000 licensed London taxis from the computer cab company, which will operate the entire system, have been enlisted to provide the service. 'There is no better way to travel to and from Heathrow than in a black cab. You can use the M4 bus lane to beat the traffic queues and you have the most knowledgeable drivers in London at your service,' Richard Tams, British Airways' head of UK and Ireland sales, said. 'This is a fantastic additional service for premium customers whether they live in Belgravia, Bath or Birmingham,' he added. The new service follows the launch of British Airways' BAcking Britain campaign, which will see some £15 million worth of free flights offered to small and medium-sized British businesses.
