LTE cancels Majorca-Norwich flights for another month

LTE Airlines have suspended all flights from Norwich Airport including Majorca for the next month. The viability of the route will be considered by directors again in the next month before any more decisions are taken.

LTE, whose headquarters are based in Majorca offer flights to Alicante, Barcelona and Malaga. They first cancelled flights on the sixteenth of October due to financial constraints. Currently over three thousand people have flights booked from Norwich Airport in the coming year with LTE airways. It remains to be seen whether these flights will be cancelled.

The director of Norwich Airport expressed disappointment that flights were cancelled for another month. He claims the airport is as much in the dark about LTE’s plans as their customers are. He said the airline will continue to work hard and do their best to find a solution to the problem.

Passengers looking for refunds should contact LTE as soon as possible if they booked directly otherwise you should contact your travel agent. Contact details are:
