Manchester to Manston

FLYBE’S new air link from Manchester to Manston has been introduced.  The route is operated by a 78-seat Bombardier Q400 turboprop with a flight time of 70 minutes, the service daily except Saturday.  This is Flybe’s second venture from the Kent airport.  A daily Edinburgh route started in May and is proving extremely popular.  Manston Airport serves a large area of Kent and East Sussex, with poor road links to the north of the country.  Manston to Manchester is 275 difficult miles, and Edinburgh 500 miles.  The popular cruise and ferry port of Dover is less than 20 miles from Manston. www.flybe.com www.manstonairport.com
