While other low-cost airlines cut services, Air Europa is bucking the trend with increased flights and new routes for its Winter 2009 schedule.
The Spanish airline announced scheduled flights to winter sun favourites the Canary Islands of Las Palmas, Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura, as well as Palma de Mallorca, Ibiza and Minorca in the Balearic Islands.
These destinations have short connection times in Madrid and the airline is also launching three daily flights to Lisbon via Madrid.
Air Europa’s London Gatwick to Madrid route provides regular connections to a host of exciting destinations in South America and the Caribbean including Cuba, Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico and the Dominican Republic.
Three-times-weekly flights from London to Brazil’s Salvador de Bahia via Madrid are to be reintroduced from November 3rd 2009.
Air Europa’s service to Argentina has proved so successful that the winter schedule will see flights increase to once a day from Buenos Aires.
“Following the success of the new London Gatwick to Madrid route, Air Europa is fast becoming known as a South American specialist airline.
“We are proud to offer our customers even more new routes and an expanded winter schedule,” says Colin Stewart, UK general manager.
Looking ahead, Air Europa is also announcing a weekly transatlantic flight between Tenerife North and Miami, securing its position as the only carrier to offer a non-stop service to the US from either of Tenerife’s airports.
