Flybe is increasing flights between Birmingham International and Glasgow International due to rival budget airline bmibaby withdrawing services later this month.
The regional carrier said it would “significantly” increase frequency on the route after bmibaby’s twice-daily flights stop on January 28.
Flybe currently operates up to 78 flights a week between Birmingham and Glasgow using a combination of its 78-seat Bombardier Q400 turboprop aircraft and 118-seat Embraer 195 jets.
Mike Rutter, Flybe’s chief commercial officer, said: “Flybe appreciates how crucial regional connectivity is as businesses work hard to climb out of these tough economic times and no other UK carrier has yet exhibited a bigger commitment to supporting the UK regions through thick and thin.
“This is why we have stepped in so quickly to make sure that passengers wanting to travel between Birmingham and Glasgow are not left in the lurch.”
