BA Cityflyer will cease flights from London City to Copenhagen at the end of May, as it prepares to add new routes and increased frequencies from the airport.
The BA subsidiary has confirmed that its service to the Danish capital will cease on May 26.
A BA spokesperson said: “Despite our best efforts this route is just not successful and with no signs of improvement the decision was made to use the aircraft on a route where there is a commercial need”.
The carrier is launching new summer routes from London City to Mahon in Menorca, Angers in the Loire Valley, and Quimper in Brittany in May, and will also add frequencies to its Glasgow service, as well as launching flights to Aberdeen and Venice later this year.
The move will leave no direct flights between London City and Copenhagen – SAS has previously served the route in partnership with the now defunct Cimber Sterling which went into bankruptcy last week.
BA also offers flights from Heathrow to Copenhagen, while Easyjet flies from Gatwick and Stansted, Norwegian operates from Gatwick, and SAS flies from Heathrow to the Danish capital.
