BA Cityflyer, the wholly owned subsidiary of British Airways, and Glasgow Airport have launched a new direct service connecting Glasgow with San Sebastián in northern Spain.
The seasonal route began operating on Saturday, 18 July 2026. It provides travellers from Scotland with direct access to the coastal city during the summer season.
Flights will operate every Tuesday and Saturday until 8 September 2026. The service expands the range of leisure destinations available directly from Glasgow Airport.
San Sebastián is located on Spain’s northern coast in the Basque Country. The city is known for La Concha beach, its Old Town, cultural attractions and gastronomy.
Ian Romanis, Managing Director of BA Cityflyer, said: “We were delighted to launch our new direct service between Glasgow and San Sebastián, giving our Scottish customers even more choice and convenience when planning their summer holidays. The route provides direct access to one of Spain’s most popular coastal destinations, and we’re confident it will prove popular with customers looking to explore the Basque region’s stunning coastline, culture and world-renowned cuisine.”
Gavin Birch-Williams, Managing Director of Glasgow Airport, said: “We are delighted to celebrate the launch of the BA Cityflyer new direct service between Glasgow and San Sebastián.
“This exciting addition further strengthens our summer route network and provides passengers across Scotland with even greater choice when booking their holidays. San Sebastián is a fantastic destination that combines beautiful beaches, exceptional cuisine and a unique cultural experience.
