Newcastle Airport takes off with new routes

An airport is soaring into summer with new airlines and destinations joining its expanding schedule.

Newcastle International Airport will welcome two new airline partners in May – Norwegian Airlines and Blue Islands – while also launching four new routes to Berlin, Copenhagen, Guernsey and Agadir. 

The expansion marks a strong start to the summer season, offering more choice for travellers seeking city breaks or sunshine escapes.

Eurowings has already begun twice-weekly flights to Berlin, while Norwegian Airlines is now flying to Copenhagen. 

Guernsey will join the schedule from May 6 via Blue Islands, while TUI will launch weekly flights to Agadir, in Morocco, on May 5.

In addition to the new destinations, SunExpress will also expand its offering from the airport with new flights to Dalaman, operating every Wednesday and Sunday.

Leon McQuaid, director of aviation development at Newcastle Airport, said: “We are delighted to be launching new routes to Berlin, Copenhagen, Guernsey and Agadir.

“The arrival of Norwegian Airlines and Blue Islands, alongside continued investment from Eurowings, SunExpress and TUI, further enhances our growing route network with passengers able to fly directly to 84 destinations and more than 300 onward connections worldwide. 

“We look forward to celebrating with our airline partners when the new routes take off over the next week.” 

All new services are now on sale, with fares for some routes starting from under £40.
