Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

British Airways will start a number of new services in winter 2012/13 following its takeover of the bmi airline.

Among the routes will be London City Airport to Aberdeen, Heathrow to Leeds Bradford and Heathrow to Belfast.

The airline will also be starting Heathrow services to Seoul in South Korea and to Zagreb in Croatia, while there will be a three-times-a-week service between Gatwick and Las Vegas.

BA will also be increasing frequency on a number of routes.

BA chief executive Keith Williams said: "Bmi's integration into BA is really enabling us to grow our network as we promised, giving customers more flights to destinations we know they want to fly to.

"We're focusing on new routes such as Seoul, Leeds Bradford and Zagreb, more flights to popular destinations and creating more connections for the UK regions to our global network of flying."
