The conveniently timed flights are aimed at both business and leisure travellers in the Midlands and further afield |
 |
| Commenting on the new launches, Jochen Schnadt, Chief Commercial Officer from bmi regional, said: "We are delighted to be introducing these two new flights from Birmingham as part of our ongoing growth strategy to connect key business regions. Both Nuremberg and Gothenburg have a great deal to offer both business and leisure customers and, as such, are already proving popular. We're excited to be bringing the bmi regional level of quality, convenience, service and professionalism to these new routes" Paul Kehoe, CEO, of Birmingham Airport said: "We are delighted that bmi regional has launched services to Nuremberg and Gothenburg, two unserved destinations from Birmingham. These new additions mean that bmi regional now serves three routes, as it started flights to Graz earlier in the year. So passengers now have even more choice to fly to Germany, Sweden and Austria from their local airport" Fares start from £79 one way for Nuremberg and £89 one way for Gothenburg. All bmi regional fares include 23kg of hold luggage, allocated seating, complimentary in-flight drinks and snacks and 30 minute check-ins For more information or to book a flight with bmi regional visit |
