Regional Flights To Heathrow Put At Risk

Wednesday 27th February 2008

Regional flights to Heathrow are at risk after they doubled the landing fees for smaller aircraft.

The second largest airline that operates from heathrow Airport Bmi have accused the owners of Heathrow Airport of  exploiting their position to charge more for smaller flight encouraging more international long-haul flights which are more profitable for them.

Some of the airports that could lose out due to the new changes are Durham Tees Valley, Leeds, Newcastle, and Manchester which would be a disaster for them as they rely on the connections for local business. Regional flights have consistently dropped since 1990 at Heathrow Airport and now see no sign of changing.
