Group Flights

This year for main date travel there are two group blocks from London Heathrow Airport. 

Domestic travel to London from anywhere south of Manchester must be booked on the Duty Travel Portal. 

Group Blocks are ECONOMY class only, there are no group seats in premium economy or business class.  

Due to peak season in the USA, group blocks are return flights only so you cannot book one direction on the group block.
