30.01.10
Newcastle Airport is hoping to soar out of the recession as it celebrates its 75th year. The airport has marked the milestone by announcing a series of celebrations and unveiling a special logo.
This week it was revealed seven new flight services will run from the airport in 2010, and its chief executive Dave Laws has predicted growth of 2% over the next 12 months. He said: ‘We first opened on July 26 1935 and now we are in a position where we have the capability to process 7.5 million passengers a year, fly people to more than 80 destinations worldwide and play a significant role in the regional economy.'
‘I think this is an exceptionally proud year for everybody connected with the airport. We have a series of events planned and want to involve as many people in our celebrations as possible.’
