A recent study undertaken by Eastern Airways show that the Cornwall Airport Newquay – London Gatwick route is used by almost 60% of passengers for either leisure or visiting friends and family purposes.
Rising costs for holidaying abroad have meant that the staycation market is still very strong in the UK and these additional services are in place to give more options for travel to Cornwall but also for those travelling to the capital.
Roger Hage, General Manager of Eastern Airways has commented “As we hit the peak summer school period, increasing connectivity for those using this already popular service is key for Eastern Airways. The introduction of the mid-day service now provides a greater range of options for individuals, couples and families that are relying on this time efficient service.”
The introduction of the mid-day flights now allow for additional travel options for those using the service for business, leisure, visiting friends and family and onward travel.
The journey with Eastern Airways between London Gatwick and Cornwall currently operates on a 75-minute flight on one of our comfortable ATR72-600 aircraft. Comparable journeys are a minimum of 5 hours by car and 7 hours by rail. Prices start from just £44.99 per person, including taxes, charges and baggage allowance.
