04.07.07
Regional airline Flybe has added eight new routes to its winter schedule, with a focus on ski flights to Switzerland. The airline made the announcement as it put its entire winter schedule - seven million seats - on sale for flights from October 28 until the end of March.
The new winter routes are:
o Southampton to Brussels and its first ever winter service to Avignon
o Isle of Man to Luton and Geneva
o Cardiff International to Paris Charles de Gaulle
o Jersey to Geneva
o Newquay to Geneva
o First ever winter service between Edinburgh and Newquay
The new routes to Geneva from Isle of Man, Jersey and Newquay open up Switzerland to these regions for the first time, according to the airline. These are in addition to the reintroduction of winter services between Geneva and Birmingham, Exeter, Norwich and Southampton.
The airline is also increasing services to other winter sports destinations across France, Austria and Germany, including new routes to Chambery, Berne and Salzburg.
Chief commercial officer Mike Rutter said: 'The introduction of an additional route between Southampton and Brussels and the expansion of our services to Switzerland is of great strategic importance, demonstrating Flybe's aggressive expansion policy as we spread into new European territories and continue to open up the UK regions to a wealth of exciting destinations.'
