Spanish airline adds three new routes from Norwich Airport
26.04.08
Three low-fare services to Spain are to be launched from Norwich Airport this summer by Spanish carrier LTE. Weekly flights Alicante, Barcelona and Palma are to start on July 5 with one-way fares from £69 including taxes and charges using a 180-seat Airbus A320.
Michael Harrington, managing director of the Palma-based airline, said: ‘These will be our first scheduled flights from a regional airport in the UK and we have chosen Norwich because of its strong local catchment area and the support we have had from the airport.'
Norwich Airport managing director Richard Jenner said: ‘They are an established charter airline, having worked with UK tour operators such as Thomas Cook and Thomson – indeed, many passengers from Norwich have already flown with LTE to Lanzarote on First Choice holidays.’
‘This is a great fit for us. LTE has a three-to five-year plan to develop its route network here. They want to fly throughout the winter and then if demand is there over a period of time, to increase services to three times a week, which will open up the short breaks and second homeowner markets.’
