Airport talking to airlines about Spanish routes
16.09.07
Norwich Airport managers are holding talks with a range of airlines to try to restore routes cut by Flybe earlier this summer, according to local press report. However, Norwich passengers could expect to wait for up to a year for the routes to be reinstated, a spokesman for the airport said.
The Norwich Evening News say public outcry over the route cancellations has lead to airport bosses talking to other airlines to try to restore them. They are particularly focusing on routes to Alicante and Malaga, which Flybe will not operate during the winter.
Louise Wilkinson, the airport spokeswoman, said: 'We are looking at every possibility because we know people want them back at Norwich. The flights to Alicante and Malaga are a priority because people are asking for them and we want to give passengers choice.'
However, she conceded that finding an airline with spare aircraft who are prepared to to operated the routes over the winter would be a challenge, given that airlines 'are normally committed to a route and a timetable for at least a year.'
