British Airways will launch two nonstop routes each week between the Holy City and London, starting April 4, the airline announced Thursday. The Thursday and Sunday service will continue through Oct. 24, 2019. Tickets go on sale Friday. The price has not been announced.

Passengers will fly on a Boeing 787-8, like those assembled in North Charleston next to the airport. It will seat 214 people in three classes on the eight- to nine-hour flight.

“We are ushering in a new day for this region and our state as we launch this flight to a premier European destination,” said Paul Campbell, CEO of Charleston County Aviation Authority, which oversees the state’s busiest airport.
