Thomas Cook boost for south west
Thomas Cook is to expand its summer 2014 operation with more flights and a wider range of holidays from Bristol.
Following the success of basing an additional aircraft at Bristol Airport last summer, Thomas Cook Airlines will this summer replace its two existing Airbus A320s with larger Airbus A321s.
This means that for this summer, there will be a 20% increase in holidays and flight-only seats from Bristol through the operator.
Thomas Cook Airline director of planning, Rob Thompson, said, "It’s more great news for travellers from the South West as we add more flexibility and choice…building on the success of last year’s new routes."
Thomas Cook’s programme from Birmingham includes the Canary Islands, Bulgaria, Greece and Turkey.
Meanwhile, bmi regional has more than tripled the number of passengers it carries each month on its Bristol to Hamburg route since launching 12 months ago.
The service carried over 15,000 passengers in its first 12 months, bringing commercial benefit to the south west and boosting tourism.
