Flybe, Europe’s largest independent regional airline, on November 22, 2018 responded as follows to the Government Transport Secretary Chris Grayling’s announcement that, with effect from March 31, 2019, it will start operating four times daily flights direct to London Heathrow from Newquay Cornwall Airport under the new Public Service Obligation agreement.

Roy Kinnear, Flybe Chief Commercial Officer, says: “We are naturally delighted to offer customers the opportunity to fly with us between Cornwall Newquay Airport and London Heathrow on this new route with its increased frequency to London four times a day, seven days a week.

“The decision confirms that Flybe is a vital part of the UK’s transport infrastructure.

“We look forward to this new service to London proving popular with its increased frequency and improved opportunities for inbound and outbound connectivity with many other parts of the world – and to welcoming many new passengers on board next year.”
