This week marks the start of the summer season at Cornwall Airport Newquay with Ryanair flights to Alicante, Frankfurt-Hahn and Faro commencing their twice weekly services as well as Flybe’s daily Birmingham and Stansted flights making a return and the increase in the Manchester service from one to two flights daily.

Cornwall Airport Newquay was officially recognised as the fastest growing airport in the UK in 2016, with 48% growth in passenger numbers.

With Ryanair’s new route to Faro and a new route starting to Cork with Aer Lingus Regional in May, as well as significant frequency increases on key domestic routes to Manchester, Leeds Bradford, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Belfast, the Airport is forecasting that 2017 will be the busiest since 2008 and the fourth consecutive year of double digit growth.
