Flybe adds eight new routes for winter
Eight new routes are being added by Flybe this winter with a focus on ski flights to Switzerland.
The airline has put seven million seats on sale for its winter schedule which runs from October 28.
Three new routes to Geneva from UK airprots including the Isle of Man, Jersey and Newquay are being launched, opening up Switzerland to these regions for the first time, according to the airline.
These are in addition to the reintroduction of winter services between Geneva and Birmingham, Exeter, Norwich and Southampton.
The airline is increasing services to other winter sports destinations across France, Austria and Germany, including new routes to Chambery, Berne and Salzburg.
The new winter routes include:
· Southampton to Brussels and its first ever winter service to Avignon
· Isle of Man to Luton and Geneva
· Cardiff to Paris Charles de Gaulle
· Jersey to Geneva
· Newquay to Geneva
· First winter service between Edinburgh and Newquay
Chief commercial officer Mike Rutter said: “The introduction of an additional route between Southampton and Brussels and the expansion of our services to Switzerland is of great strategic importance, demonstrating Flybe’s aggressive expansion policy as we spread into new European territories and continue to open up the UK regions to a wealth of exciting destinations.”
