Loganair suspending flights at Newquay
Regional airline Loganair will suspend operations at Cornwall Airport Newquay this winter.
Daily services to Manchester and onwards to Aberdeen, together with non-stop flights to Edinburgh and Newcastle, will be halted between November 2022 and March 2023.
In total, almost 300 flights scheduled to Newquay over the coming winter season have been withdrawn from the airline’s schedule.
Additionally, summer routes linking Newquay with Teesside and onwards to Inverness will not return in 2023, and planned growth on other routes is to be redirected to other UK airports.
A spokesperson for Loganair said: “We’re disappointed that short-sighted and short-term decisions by the airport’s management to incentivise unsustainable operations by other airlines leave no prospect of winter flights remaining viable.
“In the meantime, we’ll be directing our efforts towards other UK regional airports such as Southampton, Exeter and Cardiff.”
Loganair has contacted customers with forward winter bookings on the affected routes to offer a change of travel date or refund options.
Loganair’s summer 2023 flights are on sale as normal.
