Airport wants Dublin flights for long haul routes
14.05.09
Robin Hood Airport is in talks over the launch of a new Dublin link – which could open up long-haul flights. The airport hopes to be able to make an announcement soon about an airline to fill the gap left by Ryanair, which axed its service earlier this year because of a rise in airport charges in Dublin. The flights had been one of the most popular from the airport.
According to press reports, if the deal can be sealed it will mean flights would leave from Doncaster to Dublin, with passengers then able to take a connection with a linked airline to destinations including America or Asia.
A spokesman for the airport said: ‘We’re in discussions with an international airline about a possible Dublin link. It is an operator that has links with other international airlines, so it could mean a link up with long- haul flights. Under a codeshare arrangement, passengers could book the flights together. It would open up Doncaster to long haul travel. We are also in discussion with long haul operators direct out of Robin Hood.’
