Geneva route hots up

22 Sep 2005 by business traveller

Scottish low-cost airline, Flyglobespan is launching flights on a key business route out of Stansted.

The airline will launch flights from the Essex airport to Geneva on December 22 following the acquisition of two Boeing 737-600s from SAS.

Flyglobespan faces direct competition with three other airlines operating between London and Geneva: Swissair, British Airways and Easyjet.

It will also launch a London Stansted-Tenerife service from November 1. Existing Flyglobespan services include flights from London Stansted to Glasgow and Edinburgh, which launched on June 1, and carried 20,000 passengers in the first three months, according to the airline. 

Managing director and chairman, Tom Dalrymple has also announced his intention to launch further routes from London. "We want to mirror what we have achieved in Scotland in the important London market and we are actively looking at extending our network of flights and services available from Stansted," he said.
