British Airways is soaring into Lunar New Year 2025 with a touch of festive magic, treating lucky passengers to exclusive surprises as the airline celebrates the transition from the Year of the Dragon to the Year of the Snake.
Passengers born in these zodiac years flying from Shanghai, Hong Kong, or Singapore received unexpected upgrades to Business Class (Club World) or VIP lounge access, making their journey even more special. Adding to the festivities, British Airways’ airport teams in these cities handed out red pockets filled with chocolate coins, spreading joy and good fortune before takeoff. Vibrant decorations adorned the terminals, setting the stage for an immersive Lunar New Year experience.
The celebration reaches its peak at Heathrow’s Terminal 5 and Terminal 3, where a traditional lion dance will bring energy and luck to departing travelers on Lunar New Year’s Day.
With daily flights to Shanghai and Hong Kong and double-daily services to Singapore, British Airways ensures seamless travel for those celebrating the occasion across Asia.
