Great news for British medical students studying in Georgia! Two major airlines, British Airways and EasyJet, have recently announced new direct routes between the UK and Tbilisi, Georgia, in response to the growing demand from thousands of British students pursuing medical degrees in the country.
Starting from March 2025, British Airways will operate direct flights from London Heathrow to Tbilisi four times a week. EasyJet is also launching a direct route from London Luton to Tbilisi, with flights scheduled twice a week beginning in April 2025.
This development is especially beneficial for students enrolled in Georgian medical universities such as Alte University, Tbilisi Medical Academy and Caucasus International University. With no more stopovers or long layovers, students can travel between the UK and Georgia with greater ease and frequency, saving both time and stress. Whether you are heading home for the holidays, returning for exams, or welcoming visiting family, these new routes make the process much more convenient.
The introduction of these flights is in direct response to the high demand generated by the thousands of British students already studying in Tbilisi. As more UK students opt to pursue their medical education in Georgia—thanks to affordable tuition fees, lower grade requirements, and globally recognized degrees—the need for better travel connectivity has skyrocketed.
MedConnect Europe, which has successfully guided over 1,000 students to study medicine and dentistry in Georgia, welcomes this improvement in travel options. As the only agency founded by doctors who themselves studied abroad, we know firsthand how important reliable and direct travel is. These new routes further enhance Georgia’s attractiveness as a medical education hub for British students.
The convenience of direct flights will not only improve the quality of life for our students but also allow them to balance academic responsibilities with family and social commitments back home more effectively. Now, flying to and from Tbilisi has never been simpler—another great reason to consider studying medicine in Georgia!
