Featuring a piece of classical music from the opera Lakmé that we have all the details on below, here’s a look at the new British Airways advert.
Titled ‘You Make Us Fly’, the voice-over in this 60-second BA ad tells viewers that “We all have something that makes us fly. For us, it’s you”.
The commercial shows British Airways cabin crew, pilots, and other staff getting up early in the morning to eagerly make their way to work ahead of travel restrictions to and from the UK gradually being eased.
Advert Music: Lakmé, Act I: Flower Duet.
Artist: Rory Marsden & Alexander Wilson & Alex Tschallener.

This classical British Airways advert music is ‘Flower Duet’, which is a duet for a soprano and mezzo-soprano in act I of Léo Delibes’ opera Lakmé.
Written by the French composer Léo Delibes, the version playing in this BA commercial was recorded by Rory Marsden, Alexander Wilson, and Alex Tschallener, and is taken from the album ‘Opera Arias’.
