British Airways removed all BA CityFlyer routes from London Stansted Airport for summer 2027, cutting five scheduled destinations from the airport. Sean M, an aviation analyst, identified the schedule change after British Airways had previously listed flights to Bergerac Dordogne Périgord Airport, Florence Airport, Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport and Palma de Mallorca Airport.
BA CityFlyer is still scheduled to operate the Florence route during winter 2026/27, which leaves a mismatch between the summer and winter schedules. The change affects travelers booked around the seasonal timetable and raises the question of whether the airline will keep serving London Stansted beyond that winter period.
Sean M and London Stansted
Sean M said British Airways had previously scheduled five destinations from London Stansted Airport for summer 2027. Those destinations were Bergerac Dordogne Périgord Airport, Florence Airport, Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport, Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport and Palma de Mallorca Airport.
BA CityFlyer has maintained a presence at London Stansted since 2016, and the latest schedule change removes every route listed there for summer 2027. That makes the cut more significant than a single route withdrawal because it clears the airport from the airline's summer timetable entirely.
Winter 2026/27 Florence
Cirium data shows BA CityFlyer still has flights scheduled to Chambéry Airport, Florence Airport and Geneva Airport during winter 2026/27. The Florence service also remains in place for that winter season, even after the summer 2027 routes were removed.
That leaves the airline with two overlapping pictures of its network at London Stansted: no summer 2027 routes, but continued winter flying on at least one of the same city pairs. For passengers, the practical step is to check whether any booking sits in the winter 2026/27 window rather than assuming the summer plan will carry through.
BA CityFlyer at London Stansted
Over the past decade, BA CityFlyer has served around 15 or 16 destinations from London Stansted, including Amsterdam, Málaga, Faro, Mykonos and Ibiza. The pattern shows that the airline has used the airport in a limited, seasonal way rather than as a full network base.
BA CityFlyer currently serves more than 20 destinations from London City Airport and operates a fleet of Embraer E190 aircraft. London City Airport remains the airline's main hub, while London Stansted sits about seven miles from central London and has now lost its summer 2027 line-up.
The open question is why British Airways removed all London Stansted routes for summer 2027. Until that is explained, the schedule points to a likely end to BA CityFlyer flying there after winter 2026/27, and travelers with plans beyond that season will need to treat the airport as absent from the airline's summer map.
