We know that keeping your children entertained during the flight is a top priority, which is why we offer activity packs and programmes that they can enjoy from boarding to landing.

What's on?

We take great care to make sure there is a wide range of suitable content on board our long flights for children of all ages.

We're pleased to offer CBeebies, Cartoon Network and Disney channels, along with a variety of popular children's shows.

You'll also find a selection of movies the whole family will enjoy, including all-time favourites from our Disney Library plus a mountain of entertainment with family favourites from Paramount+.

Our very own Skyflyers, Peggy the Pegasus and Leon the Lion are two curious, fun-loving creatures who’ve been living in our coat of arms for over 100 years. They hop out at every destination and love meeting new people and seeing new places. Look out for them at our dedicated family check-in zone in Heathrow Terminal 5.

Transcript: Peggy and Leon

Voice over:

"Can we let you into a little secret? See those British Airways planes landing there? There’s two extra special passengers on each one.

They’ve been hiding in our British Airways coat of arms for over 100 years. Say hi to Peggy the Pegasus. And Leon the Lion. Our very own SkyFlyers. I bet you didn’t even know they were there!

As soon as the plane lands, they’ll be ready to head off on another exciting adventure.

Let’s find out what they’ve been up to…

Looks like they’ve been in the French Alps. Leon loves the mountains.

Meeting new people and telling them all about his latest adventures.

There he goes again, flying high. What an adventurer!

Here they are landing in New York. Peggy loves it here.

She’s really curious and likes nothing better than discovering new places and trying new foods.

She enjoys solving problems, however tricky they might seem! Like helping Leon read the subway map!

Relaxing in hammocks in the Caribbean.

Checking out the markets in Morocco.

All this travelling is a bit tiring...

– even for regular Skyflyers like Peggy and Leon.

That’s when they jump back into the coat of arms on the next flight back to Great Britain and head for their beds.

After all, a new adventure’s only just around the corner."
