Two new domestic leisure routes are being added to the carrier’s network, while capacity is being increased on services to 13 European vacation destinations.
After a deal was agreed that could pave the way for Flybe to restart operations, Routes looks at what became of the carrier’s UK network since its failure.
Routes analyzes some of the services returning as well as new routes being launched. This week we look at the latest route being opened by Eastern Airways; Jazeera Airways’ plans to enter the Bangladesh market; and United Airlines’ restoration of a service to Germany.
This growth represents a notable change in the network strategy from the state-controlled airline and sees it using the additional capabilities of E-Jet to support market opportunities. Although these initial four return flights are a test, they could lead to a longer schedule next summer or even additional new markets.
Aurigny has provided important continuous air links from Guernsey to London’s Gatwick and Stansted airports. It has recently expanded its Gatwick schedule - following Flybe ending its competing operation on the route - and has debuted its brand new Embraer E195 in this market, the airline’s first ever jet aircraft.
