The new schedule will see weekday departures leaving Manchester at 7.15am, 11.05am, 2.20pm and 5.50pm, arriving in Stansted at 8.10am, 12 noon, 3.15pm and 6.45pm.

To coincide with the additional frequency, the independent carrier, which is one of the UK’s most punctual scheduled airlines, has also introduced one way fares starting from £49 including taxes, fees and charges.
Chris Holliday, Eastern Airways’ chief operating officer said: “We are further enhancing our business schedules, offering commuters greater choice, convenience and flexibility to help them make the best use of day trips. Along with these additional services we have introduced great value one way fares on the route, which will also appeal to those travelling for leisure purposes."
All customers travelling with Eastern Airways can utilise a dedicated fast track security channel at Stansted to avoid queues and, the airline does not charge for hold baggage. Onboard, passengers have a choice of seat and are offered complimentary drinks and snacks, including champagne.
