A new Air Southwest route has started between Newquay and London.
London City airport is located in the east of London and is only approximately 15 minutes away from all the London attractions.
It is said to have provided a 'lifeline' in boosting the local economy, as no direct link with London city itself is currently established.
"Time is money for business travellers, especially in the current climate, and this new route is a lifeline for businesses in Devon and Cornwall who want quick and easy access to the heart of the capital," - Tim Jones, from the Devon and Cornwall Business Council
The new route sees an ever increasing Newquay Airport back on form after the difficulties transferring to CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) ownership. It can only mean good things for Cornwall, as an even stronger link is now set up with the capital. Commuting is also now a real possibility and Malcolm Bell, from South West Tourism, added: "These flights create a vast new catchment in central London that will be a valuable addition to inbound tourism to Devon and Cornwall."
