Large Passenger Numbers Expected At Liverpool This Easter

Liverpool John Lennon Airport (JLA) is preparing to receive a large number of passengers over the Easter bank holiday, as customers take advantage of low-cost fares on flights to a range of European destinations.

Forecasters anticipate that around 65,000 passengers will travel though the airport during the holiday period, with many people jetting off to Spanish hotspots such as Alicante, Majorca, Madrid and Valencia.

Skiers and snowboarders will also be flying from JLA to destinations such as Friedrichshafen in Germany, which is close to several ski resorts.

Robin Tudor, general manager of corporate and community affairs for JLA, commented: "This weekend will be JLA's busiest Easter to date as people escape to enjoy the long weekend.

"Just as important however, is that this year we hope to be also welcoming thousands of passengers flying in via the airport as they visit Merseyside to join in with the Capital of Culture celebrations."

New routes from JLA to Jersey, Nantes and Malaga will begin operating in April 2008.
