Blackpool to get summer France flights
29.01.12
Blackpool Airport is to get a new seasonal summer service to and from Albert Picardie Airport in northern France. The service will bring tourists into Lancashire as it gears up for an exciting year of iconic celebrations, including The Open Championship at Royal Lytham and St Anne’s Golf Club.
Flights will be available on selected dates from April to August 2012. In addition to inbound tourists, they will also take passengers from across Lancashire and the Lake District to Albert in the heart of the Somme region. As well as access to the beautiful bay of Somme, the new route provides a gateway to the capital and the delights of Disneyland Paris.
The flights are being operated by Danish Air Transport (DAT) on an ATR 72-200 aircraft that can hold up to 66 passengers. Fares are from £95 and bookings can be taken either by visiting DAT's website: www.dat-charter.worldticket.net, by calling Blackpool Airport's Flight Ops team on 01253 472 507 or by visiting the Airport Direct Travel Shop at www.airportdirecttravel.co.uk/blackpool/
