Aug 28th
Air Europa began flying from London Gatwick to Madrid in spring and has had such great success that it has announced its winter 2009 flight schedule, which will commence in October 2009.
Sales exceeded any expectations the airline had and so has increased flight schedules from Gatwick to Madrid to cope with unexpected demand.
Passengers will be able to fly to Salvador de Bahia, Brazil via Madrid as well as Buenos Aires on the Spanish airline. In addition to this, UK holidaymakers will be able to fly to Las Palmas and Tenerife via Madrid on Air Europa.
Colin Stewart, UK general manager recently said, “We are proud to offer our customers even more new routes and an expanded winter schedule. Air Europa’s commitment to competitive pricing and exemplary customer service has significantly strengthened our position in the UK market.”
