Ryanair plugs Flyglobespan hole

Budget airline Ryanair has re-introduced two destinations to its Teesside flights programme, less than a day after a competitor pulled out of the area.

Ryanair will operate six flights a week to the Spanish destinations of Alicante and Barcelona Girona as part of its new summer schedule at Durham Tees Valley airport.

The news comes just hours after Flyglobespan announced it was pulling out of Durham Tees Valley due to “challenging economic conditions”.

Marketing and communications manager at the airport Emma Ormerod said: “We have a long and positive relationship with Ryanair and we’re delighted they are continuing to support the airport.”
