From 22 April 2013, the UK’s second largest regional airline will increase services from 22 to 26 a week with up to three flights operating in each direction on Mondays and Thursdays.

Humberside-based Eastern Airways has been operating the scheduled route from Leeds Bradford since 2003 to meet the needs of business travellers, including offshore workers and those in the finance, manufacturing and engineering industry sectors.

Kay Ryan, Eastern Airways’ commercial director, said: “We’re providing more flights each week between Leeds Bradford and Aberdeen to suit the requirements of business commuters travelling between Yorkshire and North East Scotland.  The new improved timings include a convenient 7am departure from Leeds Bradford and as well as offering three flights on Mondays and Thursdays, we continue to offer a Sunday service.”
