The airline has slashed its fares from the GCC to several destinations in the UK in all its cabins, for bookings made during the month of September.

According to The British Tourism Authority, VisitBritain, £1.2bn was injected into the UK economy from the GCC countries in 2012, with shopping being a major factor.

Paolo De Renzis, area commercial manager, Middle East and Central Asia, said the GCC is a very important region for the carrier and “we are constantly looking for ways to further connect with our customers”.

“The UK is a great place to visit all year round for shopping arts and culture, and we are delighted to welcome our GCC guests to Britain with special fares and offers,” he added.

BA said as tourism from the GCC markets become increasingly more important, “British Airways is looking to provide travellers easy, convenient ways to travel, combined with special offers”.

As part of the Big British Invite campaign the airline is also providing a range of exclusive discounts with some of the biggest names on Britain’s high street, including Harrods’s, Liberty and Westfield.

To take advantage of these offers, shoppers can simply present their British Airways boarding card to the selected vendors, or shops, when they visit Britain.

Travellers can explore the UK with British Airways’ special fares, reduced especially for the UAE market. The promotion is valid across all four cabin classes for a limited time, with fares starting from just AED 2,605 in World Traveller economy class, and other fares available in in World Traveller Plus, Club World and First.
