Just days after publishing the new timetables for golf resort services from Corvera airport, the bus operator has temporarily cancelled the service, citing the lack of passengers and disruption to flights as the reason for the decision.

In the past subsidies from the regional government have supported the service, but the current level of disruption to flights means that the numbers of passengers using the airport at the moment are low, which renders the running a bus service inviable, and no new subsidies have been agreed for the summer season due to the covid interruption, according to the concessionary.

Flights continue to be cancelled with little warning and readers have advised over the weekend that further newly re-scheduled flights have been cancelled by both easyJet and Ryanair.

The concessionary indicated that the service would be reviewed “once passenger numbers increase”.

In the meantime, passengers will have to rely on taxi services or rent a vehicle.
