Comment:
Thomsonfly's decision to launch more flights to destinations such as the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Jamaica and the Cape Verde islands, shows a clear commitment towards operating more long-haul flights, where they face much less competition from budget airlines. Thomsonfly's new routes to the Canary Islands and to Greece are also beyond the reach of most no-frills airlines, although the market for cheap flights to Tenerife is certainly growing following Ryanair's decision this week to launch flights there from Liverpool and East Midlands.
