Number of Spain flights axed at Birmingham Airport

 

A budget airline is to scrap every single one of its flights to Spain from Birmingham Airport.

Norwegian said it will cease operation of all of it's routes to Spain effective from this weekend, which comes after a review of it's services.

Norwegian previously operated routes to 5 Spanish destinations : Barcelona; Gran Canaria; Madrid; Malaga and Tenerife.

A statement from the Airline read : "Following a review of our services, we will cease operating flights from Birmingham to Spain with the last services departing on Saturday, October 28th.

"A natural part of our UK development will see some reductions in routes with lower passenger demand, allowing us to focus instead on providing affordable flights on strong-performing routes."

Earlier this month, Monarch Airlines went into receivership, signalling an end to several services out of Birmingham including to Valencia.
