New route launched out of Luton
Adria Airways has announced it will be the third new airline to add a new route from Luton as the airport boasts a quarter growth in passenger numbers.
The 24.9% increase in passenger numbers for January year on year marks 22 consecutive months of growth at the airport.
The Slovenian airline will begin operating a twice weekly service to Pristina, Kosovo from June.
It follows Vueling and Air France-KLM’s Transavia also announcing new flights from Luton for 2016.
Nick Barton, CEO of LLA, said: "Following a record year in 2015, LLA has carried that momentum through into 2016. The latest figures show that demand from passengers is continuing to grow strongly. The arrival of three new airlines – Adria Airways, Vueling and Transavia – in 2016 will help us meet that demand."
