City is losing out because air fares are too high

-

I WAS reading recently about Dundee Airport.

I’m a frequent flyer to London and only the other night I was looking for flights from Dundee for me and a friend.

This was coming up at £380 – far too high.

So I went to Ryanair and got a £75 return. That’s the reason Dundee is losing out.

I’ve been on a flight with only seven people on it.

Surely it’s better to fly with a full plane.

The only way to do that is to reduce the cost.

A few weeks ago I had to change my flight from Monday to Sunday and was charged £140.

I had to pay this as I needed home, but something must be done regarding prices.

I dread to think the cost of flights for the V&A opening.

SO students have been coming up ideas for with what Dundee Airport could look like in the future.

Surely, improvemen­ts will only come if the city secures more air routes – otherwise, what’s the point?
