Woman uses airline to get to ancient kingdom (5)
I believe the answer is:
sheba
'ancient kingdom' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'woman uses airline' is the wordplay.
'woman uses' becomes 'she' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'airline' becomes 'BA' (British Airways).
'she'+'ba'='SHEBA'
'to get to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sheba that I've seen before include "Old South Arabian kingdom" , "ancient land" , "Its queen went to visit Solomon" , "Queen in the Bible unnamed except for her country; Balkis or Bilkis in the Quran" , "Old Testament realm of queen visiting Solomon" .)
