EasyJet Increase Routes to Aberdeen

Lodged by Liam Kerr (Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party) Standard Motion 20 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament welcomes easyJet’s reported decision to bring back the Manchester service and also increase the London Gatwick service from Aberdeen International Airport; understands what it considers the great importance of these routes, with Aberdeen International Airport being the north-east of Scotland’s major transport hub and a vital economic driver to the region, contributing, it understands, more than £110 million a year to the local economy; applauds this decision by easyJet; considers that it increases the interconnectedness of the UK, with these routes acting as a gateway to what it sees as Europe’s energy capital in the north-east, and wishes easyJet all the best for the future.
