Flights between London City and Belfast City Airport resume

Direct flights between London City Airport and Belfast City Airport have resumed for the first time since February this year. The five-times-a-week service is operated by BA CityFlyer, a subsidiary of BA. The London City-Belfast City is one of the routes that was suspended earlier this year following the collapse of Flybe. Commenting on the resumption of flights, Northern Ireland Secretary of State Brandon Lewis said: “This is excellent news for Northern Ireland and the connectivity of the entire United Kingdom. It is crucial to the recovery of the economy that vital air passenger services to and from London and Belfast City Airport are maintained.” Last year, the route registered a 14.7% year-on-year growth, making it the fasted growing for London City Airport.<br/>
