buzz to fly from bournemouth

(30 October 2002)

KLM’s low cost airline Buzz has chosen Bournemouth Airport as its second UK base behind Stansted.

The airline will launch services to a number of undisclosed routes from Bournemouth from March, with seats on sale this autumn. 

The carrier will de-merge from KLM UK as part of massive expansion plans that will see a third UK base and a mainland Europe base established by 2003.

Buzz chief commercial officer Tony Camacho said: “We have been courted by a number of UK airports but ultimately we felt that Bournemouth has the strongest offering.”
