While you can't invest directly in British Airways, you can buy shares in International Consolidated Airlines Group (IAG), which is the company that owns British Airways. IAG is listed on the LSE with the stock code (or "ticker") "IAG".
Bear in mind that IAG also owns Iberia, Vueling and Aer Lingus (amongst other brands), so investing in IAG means investing in all of these – not just BA. That could be a good or bad thing, depending on which way you look at it... You're effectively a little bit more diversified by encompassing more brands, but if you had an optimistic hunch about where BA's share price might be headed, that could be watered down by the other brands.
Both exchange rates and share prices fluctuate in real time, so the costs estimated here should be considered as a guide only. They don't factor in spreads, which can be hard to pin down. Always refer to the platform itself for availability and pricing.

All investing should be regarded as longer term. The value of your investments can go up and down, and you may get back less than you invest. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. If you’re not sure which investments are right for you, please seek out a financial adviser. Capital at risk.
Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including British Airways (IAG)), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
British Airways (IAG) is a major part of the London stock exchange, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).
