A spokesperson from Esken, formerly known as Stobart Group Limited, said: "COVID sadly resulted in the cessation of passenger travel from Carlisle Lake District Airport in March 2020. Since that time, the aviation industry has continued to navigate challenges.

As such, Carlisle Lake District Airport took the decision to self-revoke the CAA licence in June 2023,"
