British Airways will begin flying the Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner to Atlanta starting in February 2020.

The carrier said it will fly its first 787-10 on its route from London Heathrow to Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport starting next year.

The airplane will have four classes of seats in the cabin: including first class, business class, World Traveller plus and World Traveller.

KLM recently began flying the 787-10 on some of its flights between Amsterdam and Atlanta.
