Flybe will start operating its 2019 summer schedule this weekend (31 March) which includes three new routes to Heathrow Airport from Guernsey, Isle of Man and Newquay and a total of 164 routes with a choice of up to 3,101 flights a week.
With the start of three brand new routes to Heathrow – from Guernsey (daily), Isle of Man (daily from 21 April) and Newquay (four daily), the airline’s presence there increases from operating seven to up to 15 flights a day, meaning that it is the fastest growing carrier at London Heathrow by frequency. In addition, Flybe operates multi-frequency daily services from both Aberdeen and Edinburgh.
Flybe’s chief commercial officer, Roy Kinnear said: “We play a key role within the UK domestic transport infrastructure and so we are particularly pleased to be offering these three additional routes to and from Heathrow airport.
