A year round route from the City of Derry Airport to Birmingham will soon be in effect.
The flight will operate twice a week, commencing in April this year with Ryanair.
Steve Frazer, Managing Director of City of Derry Airport says there has been a demand for the service throughout the Northwest for a number of years and hopes the route will boost inbound investment opportunities as well as attract a new tourism market from the UK midlands area to Derry and beyond.
