Loganair to launch new route from Glasgow Airport to Cornwall next year

Loganair have announced that they will begin flights from Glasgow Airport to Cornwall Newquay next year.

The service, which will transform summer connectivity between the West of Scotland and the South West of England, launches on May 22 2020, with tickets on sale from today (Thursday, October 3).

Flights will operate on Fridays and Saturdays from May until September together with an additional service on Tuesdays from late June to late August to cover the important school holiday period.

The Glasgow-Newquay route represents Loganair’s 15th route at Glasgow Airport, and follows hot on the heels of Loganair’s announcement of enhanced services between Glasgow and East Midlands taking to the air later this month.  

Loganair Managing Director Jonathan Hinkles said: “We’re excited by these new routes which we’ve been working for some time to develop at just the right level. With more and more people holidaying in the UK, avoiding expensive Euro exchange rates or enjoying a staycation with friends and family we’re confident that the routes will do well.

“This service will let Glasgow holidaymakers access the Cornish Riviera, with visitors from the South West of England able to journey on to destinations in the Highlands and Islands as well as experiencing what Glasgow and the West of Scotland has to offer. It will offer a welcome alternative to what is currently an 11-hour journey by train with changes en route.”

Fares are from £69.99 one way including free checked baggage allowance, allocated seating and complimentary in-flight refreshments.
