There will be an expansion of an airline’s fleet at Birmingham Airport which will create over 200 job vacancies.
Monarch Airlines is starting 5 new destinations from Birmingham Airport to Italy, Greece and Croatia early in next summer.
Paul Kehoe, chief executive officer of Birmingham Airport, said:
With the airport’s considerable investment in facilities and with plans to commit £100m over the next 10 years, the industry is clearly impressed with the work we are doing.
We have enjoyed a long-standing relationship with the airline and we look forward to working further with Monarch and building on our successful partnership with them to promote and launch their new routes.
Monarch Airlines has been operating from Birmingham since 2005. The company flies from London Gatwick, Luton and Manchester too.
Managing Director of Monarch, Kevin George said:
We are all very excited to be adding two additional aircraft to our Birmingham fleet and introducing our first flights to Italy and Croatia, which is fantastic news for our customers in the Midlands and cements Birmingham as one of Monarch’s key UK airports.
