Flybe axe Norwich – Channel Islands flights
27.09.08
Budget airline Flybe has axed its flights to the Channel Islands from Norwich Airport, the Eastern Daily Press reports. All flights to Guernsey and Jersey will be cancelled throughout the winter, from the beginning of November until the end of March.
The cuts are part of a programme of belt-tightening that has seen a host of Flybe routes cancelled from UK airports. But last night the airline insisted it was still ‘committed to Norwich’, and said the changes were made ‘in view of the current economic conditions’.
A spokesman told the newspaper: ‘Flybe has to provide services where a clear demand is identified and services are supported. In view of the current economic conditions, Flybe confirms that it will not be operating its direct Norwich to Guernsey and Jersey services during the 2008/09 winter schedule.’
She said passengers were being informed and would be offered a full refund.
