Latest app features

Manage your travel on the move with the British Airways app on your mobile, iPad or Apple Watch.

Using BA app on a phone.

Quick check-in

If you're travelling on your own, have already reserved your seat and have added your Advance Passenger Information, you can now check in with only three taps. Available for one-way or return journeys when using iPhone and Android devices.


Boarding passes for connecting flights

If you're connecting from one British Airways flight to another, you can check in and download the boarding passes for all your flights as soon as you have checked in for your first flight.

This new feature also works if you need to get boarding passes for up to eight people travelling together on the same booking. You can use it for all destinations where mobile boarding passes are available.


Multiple boarding passes for families and groups

Download up to eight boarding passes to one mobile device, reducing the risk of losing your paper boarding passes when travelling as a family or group. However, you will be unable to use them if you have an infant in your booking.

Available on iPhone and Android devices.
