BA to offer more flights to Tampa, Florida

British Airways announced Thursday it plans to increase flight frequency to Tampa, Florida beginning in March 2011 with one flight per day.

In a press release, BA said: "Tampa is the perfect gateway for holidays in Florida,
giving customers the chance to experience a wide range of destination
and breaks, all easily reached from the convenience of one airport. From
beaches and parks to the lively city centre and cultural centres, there
is something for everyone."

Some of the attractions British Airways advised visitors to check out when in the Tampa area include the Latin Quarter, Ybor City and Busch Gardens, which will debut a new "high speed mega attraction" called Cheetah Hunt around the same time BA starts servicing the city.

Tampa is also an easy car ride to nearby Orlando, which offers such popular tourist spots like Disney World and Universal Studios.
