British Airways (BA) is the flag carrier airline of the United Kingdom, headquartered in London, England, near its main hub at Heathrow Airport.   It is the second largest airline in the United Kingdom, based on fleet size and passengers carried, behind easyJet.
BA was created in 1974 after a British Airways Board was established by the British government to manage the two
nationalized
airline corporations, British Overseas Airways Corporation and British European Airways, and two regional airlines, Cambrian Airways and Northeast Airlines.  On 31 March 1974, all four companies were merged to form British Airways.  However, it marked 2019 as its centenary based on predecessor companies.   After almost 13 years as a state company, BA was
privatized
in February 1987 as part of a wider
privatization
plan by the Conservative government.  The carrier expanded with the acquisition of British Caledonian in 1987, Dan-Air in 1992, and British Midland International in 2012.  Its pre-eminence highlights the reach of the country's influence as many of its destinations in several regions were historically part of the British Empire.
