The airline, which had previously offered title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Cancun/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Cancun/" target="_self">flights to Cancun until April 2002, will be the only British carrier operating direct, scheduled routes to the Mexican holiday hotspot.

From 3 November two flights a week will depart on Wednesday and Saturday from Gatwick , supplementing BA’s existing connecting service to Cancun from title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/airports/Heathrow/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/airports/Heathrow/" target="_self">London Heathrow Airport. That link is operated by codeshare partner title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/airlines/American-Airlines/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/airlines/American-Airlines/" target="_self">American Airlines and includes a stopover in title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Dallas/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Dallas/" target="_self">Dallas or title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Miami/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Miami/" target="_self">Miami.

Fares for the 11-hour title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/Mexico/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/Mexico/" target="_self">flights to Mexico are now on sale and start at around £630 for Economy Class return tickets.

British Airways’ UK and Ireland sales and marketing manager, Richard Tams, commented: “We’re delighted to be the only UK scheduled airline offering direct flights to Cancun. It is the perfect addition to our Gatwick long-haul premium leisure network.”

The flag carrier recently expanded its network by adding title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/Maldives/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/Maldives/" target="_self">flights to the Maldives, title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Montego-Bay/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Montego-Bay/" target="_self">Montego Bay, title="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Sharm-El-Sheikh/" href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/flights/Sharm-El-Sheikh/" target="_self">Sharm el Sheikh and the href="http://www.cheapflights.co.uk/Dominican-Republic/" target="_self">Dominican Republic.  As with the restored Cancun route, some of these were reinstatements of previously suspended services.
