British Airways on Thursday announced a promotional scheme offering a basic fare of Rs 9,990 for London from major Indian cities like New Delhi and Mumbai, instead of the usual basic fare of about Rs 22,000.
British Airways is offering a special basic fare of Rs 9,990 for its flights to London from New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad and Bangalore, British Airways said in a statement.

"India is an important market for us and we will continue to provide our customers excellent value for money and unparalleled service that they have come to expect from us," British Airways area commercial manager (South Asia) Amanda Amos said.
