2011-06-10
British Airways has commenced new daily flights to San Diego in California. British Airways describes San Diego as “its latest Californian holiday hotspot.”
As the only airline flying direct to San Diego from Europe, the new route offers greater access to local markets for business, but also serves what is a popular leisure destination, too.
British Airways' Richard Tams, said: "San Diego is very 'hip' - it's often rated as the best place in America to live, and it's easy to see why. It offers beautiful beaches, a bustling nightlife
and a chilled out scene that make it very appealing all year round."
The new route will provide a fantastic opportunity for British holidaymakers who are looking to holiday in San Diego. There's plenty of opportunities for sightseeing, there's great surfing and also some great golfing, too. And there's also some great shopping in this interesting holiday destination, which boasts having leisure opportunities for everyone.
What has San Diego got going for it? A very great deal, is the short answer. You might have heard of the world-famous San Diego Zoo and the SeaWorld centre. You might not be aware that it is also renowned for 70-odd miles of beaches, average daily temperature of 22 degrees and plentiful outdoor recreational opportunities. There are also museums and galleries and Balboa Park with its attractions. There's a Legoland for the kids and a gorgeous historic Gaslamp Quarter within the historic heart of the city itself. You can enjoy day trips to locations like the Joshua Tree National Park, or visit the picturesque mountain town of Idyllwild.
As you would expect there are plenty of hotels in the city and environs from 3 Star right up to five star.
