Take off for Loganair’s new Norwich-Exeter route

Loganair, the UK’s largest regional airline, has today (12 July) launched a new direct service between Norwich and Exeter, enhancing its 2021 summer schedule.

 

The new route will operate up to four times weekly, flying Mondays, Wednesday, Fridays and Sundays, connecting business and leisure travellers alike.

 

Operated using a 49-seat Embraer 145 regional jet, the route will see fares starting at just £58 one-way.

 

The route adds to Loganair’s growing portfolio of services from Norwich Airport where demand for its domestic routes continues to grow as Coronavirus restrictions ease.

Kay Ryan, Loganair’s chief commercial officer, said: “We are thrilled to be launching our new Norwich-Exeter route and recommencing flights to Edinburgh today”.

 

“The services will provide essential connectivity for businesses as the economy begins to recover and allow loved ones from across the UK to finally reconnect”.

 

“We are committed to restoring domestic services and playing our key role as the UK’s largest regional airline, at a time when UK connectivity has never been more important”
