There has never been a charter flight from Kidlington to mainland Europe in the airport’s 70-year history, but a raft of destinations will be confirmed by the end of the year, with planes expected to fly out in 2010.
One off's maybe but there will never be flights from the likes of Thomson. Luton used to be a pure charter airport not so long ago but the tour operators like to keep most of their South East aircraft at Gatwick these days as they force many holidaymakers to use Gatwick. If Luton today is almost devoid of IT traffic then there is no chance for Oxford.
