Stavanger flights to go non-stop
Eastern Airways is starting its first non-stop service from Newcastle to Stavanger.
The new daily week day service is to be launched on May 12, cutting out a stop in Aberdeen.
Flights will depart from Newcastle at 09.50, arriving in Stavanger at 12.40 local time. Flights leave Stavanger at 13.10, landing in Newcastle at 14.00 local time.
The move follows expansion of services from Newcastle with increases week day flights to Aberdeen, Southampton and Cardiff.
“This is major milestone in the development of our Newcastle services,†said Chris Holliday, Eastern Airways’ chief operating officer.
“After initially establishing a connecting service via Aberdeen, which showed there was demand for daily services between north east England and Stavanger, business travellers will now be able to make significant time savings with our new, convenient non-stop flights from Newcastle.â€
