Airlines Flying Business Class to Philadelphia

Philadelphia is served direct from London by American and BA.

American Airlines — direct

American’s Flagship Business flies non-stop from Heathrow to its Philadelphia hub, with onward connections across the US.

British Airways — direct

BA flies non-stop from London in its Club Suite, with a flat bed, privacy door and direct aisle access, plus Avios and tier points for collectors.

One-stop via a US hub

United and Delta connect via a US hub, frequently at lower fares and from regional UK airports, with the bonus of a possible stopover. We ticket the whole journey together in business class.

The Cheapest Way to Fly Business Class to Philadelphia

The US routes are among the most competitive in the world, which means a specialist can find real value. These are the levers we use to bring the fare down:

• Private contracted fares — rates below the published price for the same seat, our biggest saving
• Fly from a regional airport — from Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow or Newcastle, a short connection via Dublin, Amsterdam or a US hub can undercut the London fare and avoid the trip south
• The day-flight trick — close to departure, flying out by day in premium economy and home overnight in business can cut the cost significantly while still giving you the flat bed when it matters most
• Target the sale periods — January and September are reliably the strongest sale windows on transatlantic routes; we watch them so you do not have to
• One-stop routings — connecting via a US hub or Europe often unlocks lower fare buckets, with the bonus of a stopover
