An airline which flies to a Yorkshire airport set to close next month will transfer its flights to Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA).
Wizz Air, which flies from Eastern Europe to Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA), has confirmed it will instead be flying to the Yeadon airport from October 31. This follows the announcement on Monday that the South Yorkshire airport will be closing.
The airline's flights from the Polish cities of Gdansk, Katowice, Krakow, Warsaw and Wroclaw as well as the Romanian cities of Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca will continue to fly to DSA until October 30. Those with tickets for Wizz Air flights to DSA will be rebooked onto flights to LBA, or offered alternative flights, a refund or a credit note, Wizz Air said today.
