Midlands to Cornwall flight route announced by Eastern Airways
Eastern Airways has announced a new flight route connecting the Midlands to Cornwall. From February 10 the regional airline will operate a daily service between East Midlands Airport and UK holiday destination Newquay.
The carrier said the hour-long flights, which will begin to coincide with school half-term breaks, would be operated year round, on a “low-emission” 72-seater ATR aircraft.
Bosses at Eastern Airways described the creation of the route, which is the only one to connect the Midlands to the South West, as ”a major step”. The travel hub sits within 30-minutes of Nottingham, Derby, Leicester and an hour of Sheffield.
Commercial director Roger Hage said: “Adding the new destination of Newquay-Cornwall, this significantly improves access to the UK staycation destination of choice.
