Bmi regional is scrapping five routes and pulling out of Edinburgh, Birmingham and Manchester airports following a “comprehensive review” of operations.
The airline, which became fully independent a year ago, will keep Aberdeen and Bristol as its main hubs.
The routes being scrapped are Manchester to Edinburgh and Antwerp; Birmingham to Billund; and Edinburgh to Copenhagen and Brussels.
Aberdeen to Manchester flights will continue but will be crewed from Aberdeen and the airline said most of its European operations would be unaffected.
It does not expect any job losses as a result of the changes.
“We have started consultations with affected employees, including the opportunity to move to one of our other crew bases," said a spokesman.
“We would like to reassure all customers booked to fly with us on the affected routes that services will operate up to the termination date – 29 November for Manchester, 31 December for Billund and 5 January for Edinburgh to Copenhagen and Brussels.
“We will be in contact with passengers booked beyond these dates to offer alternative arrangements or refund.”
Last week bmi regional announced a new route from Newcastle to Brussels and launched services between Aberdeen and Oslo on Monday.
Bmi regional was bought for £8m by Sector Aviation Holdings (SAH) last year from British Airways’ parent IAG.
