Flyglobespan denies quitting Durham Tees Valley
20.08.08
Flyglobespan has denied it is to pull out of Durham Tees Valley Airport and move operations to Newcastle Airport. The airline, which created 60 jobs when it began services from Durham Tees Valley in March last year, was said to be considering a move to the larger airport in an attempt to secure a more profitable customer base. But last night it emphatically denied the reports and said it was ‘planning ahead’ for next year.
Last week, the firm’s chief executive Rick Green had talks at Durham Tees Valley and, according to a spokesman, was discussing ‘various aspects of the airline’s programme, including Durham Tees Valley’. The spokesman said: ‘We have yet to finalise our full programme for next summer and are in talks at a senior level as we look to plan ahead for 2009. When our final plans are agreed, we will make a full announcement. Flyglobespan is not planning a move to Newcastle.’
