In a survey pertaining to the launch of new service from this base, the residents of the Dundee area have been asked to voice their opinion on the prospects of a demand for a link that connects the city's airport with Amsterdam.
Recently, the Dundee Airport has published an online survey to collect useful data on the potential for a direct air link operated to one of the leading international hub airports across the globe, that shall eventually enable the airport to determine how many people would use the service if introduced and how often they would make use of it, so that the profitability of the route could be ascertained even before the launch.
A good number of people residing in the airport's catchments area presently fly to Amsterdam through Aberdeen and Edinburgh. Amidst this circumstance, the survey will gauge the potential market to offer direct flights from the Dundee Airport.
The Manager of Dundee Airport, Graeme Bell, noted, "Highlands and Islands Airports Limited and Dundee Airport are committed to working with airlines to develop new scheduled routes for the City of Dundee and surrounding regions. A direct link to Amsterdam would be of enormous economic benefit to this area for business and leisure travel and is an important route development target for us.â
Interestingly, the survey takes only five minutes to complete and is closing on Sunday, the 31st August. Eventually, the results of the survey will be published on a later date on the website of the Highland and Islands Airport Limited.
