British Airways’ parent company, International Airlines Group (IAG), has announced a record operating profit of 5.0 billion euros (£4.4 billion) for the past year, marking a substantial 17.3 per cent increase.
This impressive figure, up from 4.3 billion euros (£3.8 billion) in 2024, was attributed by the airline giant to "long-term demand growth in our core markets and constrained supply in a consolidating industry". The group’s capacity, measured by available seat kilometres, saw a 2.4 per cent rise in 2025.
