Romanian carrier Blue Air is cancelling some of its flights from Liverpool John Lennon airport as a result of Brexit confusion.

Romania's Blue Air has been prosecuted by the CAA

The airline is cutting its Rome and Alicante routes from Liverpool, but Blue Air will continue to operate services to the Romanian destinations of Bucharest and Bacau from Liverpool.

An airport spokesperson said: “Blue Air has successfully operated its based aircraft for two years in Liverpool serving a wide range of routes.

“Unfortunately, as a Romanian Air Operator Certificate (AOC) holder, the current Brexit impasse means that the carrier has been unable to receive the necessary clarity regarding their ability to operate seventh freedom services which are currently possible under EU Open Skies.
