New Birmingham airline FlyBlu launch confirmed.

This may be of interest to some.

FLEDGLING long-haul carrier FlyBlu has finally confirmed it will launch flights to Florida this summer.

It will operate six weekly flights from Birmingham to Orlando Sanford starting from June 3 and will begin services to St Petersburg and Fort Lauderdale the following month.

Plans for the carrier will be officially unveiled at the Destinations Exhibition in Birmingham at the end of this month.

The carrier originally hoped to be in operation by Easter, but the launch was delayed by problems in securing aircraft.

It will operate a two-class service - silver and gold - on a Boeing 767 aircraft.

You can book online at www.flyblu.co.uk for the "maiden voyage" on June 3rd, Birmingham - Orlando.
