Why Did BEA Merge With BOAC To Form British Airways?

This month, British Airways celebrates 104 years of its history. The flag carrier of the United Kingdom’s story traces back to August 25th, 1919. However, the current incarnation of the brand was formed in 1974, following the merger of the UK’s previous two largest carriers. After years of domination, British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) and British European Airways (BEA) joined forces.
