British Airways Club Suite Routes

The Ultimate Guide for BA Club Suite, all the info you need about routes where you can experience the new BA Club Suite, including flight numbers, plane registrations, retrofit schedules, and more.

Introduction

Over the last years, BA was not really known to offer an excellent business class product. By introducing their new Club Suite with sliding doors, this has definitely changed now.

British Airways received the first club suite cabin with the A350-1000, in July 2019. The list below shows you all aircraft that are currently equipped with the new Club World Suites. It will grow significantly in the near future, and we will update the list as fast as possible when changes will occur.

There is, of course, still the possibility that dates will change, as not all the planes with the new cabin have arrived yet. This list represents not only the present, but also the future planned routes with the new club suite cabin.

Furthermore, you will also be able to see the last operated routes from a particular aircraft, simply click on the aircraft’s registration number.

(last update, JUN 01, 2024)

We publish business class deals from Europe and from North America on a daily basis, also these with the British Airways Club World Suite, when deals appear.

 

1. All BA Club World Suite Routes

These flights are always to/from London Heathrow.

By clicking on a flight number, you can see on planefinder.net which aircraft flew that route the last 7 days. You may then compare those registration numbers with our “BA Club Suite by registration number list”, to see how often a route is operated by airplanes equipped by the club suite business class.

Furthermore, some few of those routes are not operated every day by the Club World Suite cabin, flight numbers should only be considered as additional information.

Keep in mind that British Airways can change flight equipment at any given time without further notice. For any reason, like an aircraft that is out of service. As you booked a business class flight, you will of course be in business class, but without the new club world suite cabin.

2. How to check if a British Airways flight offers the new Club World Suite?

All of British Airways’ new Airbus A350-1000 will offer the new Club World Suite.

Since October 2019, the first new Club world Suite cabin has been available in a retrofitted Boeing 777-200 as well. From that moment on, more and more B777-200 are being retrofitted.

In 2020 the new Boeing 787-10 did also receive the club suite cabin.

The way you can tell if an aircraft has the new BA Club World Suite cabin is from the seat map. We use ExpertFlyer to check the seat maps. This is what you need to look out for.

The seat map for the Club Suite looks like this, with a cabin layout that show a 1-2-1 seating arrangement. Older cabins without the club suite do not have a 1-2-1 configuration.

Alternatively, you can also check via Google Flights if the business class seat is shown as “Suite”. However, this will not always work correctly.

    Many of the flights operating to and from BWI this summer have the club suites layout. This isn’t mentioned anywhere in the post

  • JAY

    Hi i just noticed theres 2 flights to Sao paulo from LHR per day. One is listed as British Airways – BA0241 which isnt on your list as having the new club world suites.

    The other flight leaving later the same day is British Airways – BA0247 which you have listed as having the new club world suites.

    What are the chances British Airways – BA0241 will have the new club world suite? Or shouldn’t i risk it and just go with BA0247? (as i only want to fly on the new club world suite)

    Thanks

        • premiumflights

          You’re right, starting November there’s a second flight per day on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from LHR. That one is operated by a 787, and most of the 787’s still have no suites. To be sure to get the suites, I would choose the one operated by the A350.

  • MarkR

    Great information – thanks.
    For San Diego, currently 0264/0265 flight pair is offered on 777-200 with club suites.
    0272/0273 pair is running with 787 club world for at least this summer/early fall.

  • chmielko

    booked BA266 / 267 from LHR to PDX (and back) a while ago for the trip in August. When purchasing, the layout indicated club suites. Now when tryinh to purchase seats, we’re back in the ying-yang config… disappointing 🙁

  • JC

    Hi

    Thank you for the great work!

    I’ve noted that the current BA88/89 between LHR/PKX flights are running on the 777, offering Club Suite.

    I’ve booked flights leaving on the 19/04/25 and returning on the 11/05/25. BA is showing that the aircrafts planned will be 787-8. Could you confirm this please?

    Is it common for BA to alternate between these aircrafts for the same route?

    I’ve also read elsewhere that 787-8 was used from autumn 2023 though to spring 2024.

    Thank you again!

      • premiumflights

        Starting mid-October that route is operated by a 787 without club suites, but as the first 787-8 has been retrofited now and the next will follow, it could be that they will use them on this route.
        But at the moment, starting mid-October no more Suites LHR-PKX

    • Jennifer

      Why are BA stopping BA88 and BA89 from MId October LHR to PKX?
      I have flights booked end of Novemebr and was excited to see the club suites started o that route from APril this year.
