New Southampton Flights Launched by Flybe

Flybe Announce New Routes From Southampton

One of the largest low cost airlines in Europe, Flybe, has revealed a number of new flights which will be available from Southampton airport. Offering locals a range of services to France, the additional flights will be part of Flybe's 2011 portfolio.

France is a popular destination for many, and with the economic climate making holidaying abroad less popular for people, some individuals will be staying closer to home rather than travelling halfway around the world. From May 21st Flybe will offer a route from Southampton to Clermont, before adding another French bound flight to Pau on May 25th. A third route will then be brought into effect from May 27th, offering those living in and around Southampton easy travel to Beziers.

Talking of the introduction of the new services, chief commercial officer for Flybe, Mike Rutter, said "We are delighted to be able to offer passengers more than 200 routes this summer and to (be) providing affordable quality flights to such a broad range of desirable destinations." In addition to the new Southampton based services the airline has also revealed a host of new flights being brought in across the nation. Edinburgh to Knock services will start later this month, whilst from 23rd April Exeter will provide flights to Dusseldorf.

These new services from Southampton will be particularly useful especially as they will allow those living in the area to save money and time, making holidays to France even more accessible.
