Tui has confirmed the dates of its last flights from Doncaster Sheffield Airport after confirmation it would shut. The South Yorkshire airport's owners Peel Group announced the site will begin "winding down" operations from October 31.
It said no tangible proposals had been received "regarding the ownership of the airport or which address the fundamental lack of financial viability". Now, Tui, the last airline which still operates from the airport, has confirmed the dates of its last flights, reports Yorkshire Live.
The popular airline has said it is "incredibly disappointed" by the decision to close the airport. Managing director Andrew Flintham said: "Our flights continue to operate as planned until our last flight on November 4, 2022.

"We're working closely with our customers and colleagues on the required next steps. Customer communications will be sent to those impacted shortly and we will do everything we can to offer suitable, alternative roles to colleagues."
Anyone who is affected by the closure will be contacted by Tui in departure date order. Mr Flintham added: "The airport has always been a popular and important regional airport for our valued customers and colleagues in the local area.
"We know how important regional airports are to the UK economy and we’ve always supported any proposals to keep the airport open. We’ve worked with Peel Group, the airport’s owners, and government throughout the consultation process to try and prevent this outcome."
