Tui boss Andrew Flintham has branded the decision to start closing down Doncaster Sheffield airport (DSA) from the end of October "incredibly disappointing".

Flintham: 'The airport has always been a popular and important regional airport for our valued customers and colleagues in the local area'

Flintham: "Jet2 have claimed the crown by saying they’re going to sell more – they haven’t claimed the crown by actually selling more.

DSA owner Peel Group on Monday (26 September) announced operations at the airport would start to be wound down in just a few weeks time, stating the airport was no longer commercially viable.


It comes after Wizz Air, one of two major carriers operating out of DSA along with Tui, confirmed plans to shutter its base there this summer.
