Blackpool International recently introduced free passenger parking for all departing passengers for up to 15 days, the only UK international airport to do so, in an effort to attract more passengers to use the convenient facilities at Blackpool.
Sue Kendrick added: "It's great to be able to tell everyone about the positive story at Blackpool. In a difficult aviation market at the moment, we are growing our passenger base through the introduction of the free parking marketing initiative and attracting new airlines to the airport. With the continued support of travellers from across Lancashire and the Lake District, we are confident that we can take the airport forward to become the airport of choice for these passengers.
"With easy onward connections to Glasgow and Belfast, there is no doubt that this will be an extremely popular service for all those who travel regularly from Blackpool and we will also be working with Loganair and Flybe to encourage inbound visitors to take advantage of these new flights."
