New summer route to Corsica

A new regular seasonal route will be established next spring by the tour operator Ollandini between Limoges and Bastia, Corsica.

This line will commence in late April 2010 and will be opereated throughout the summer until late September, every Thursday.

The route will be operated by Europe Airpost using a Boeing 737-300 with 147 seats.

The flight will depart Limoges at 10:55 and will fly via Poitiers before arriving in Bastia at 14:05. The return flight will depart from Bastia at 8:35 and will fly directly into Limoges arriving at 10.05.

New hanger under construction

A new hangar is being built between the terminal and hangar No.1 at Limoges Airport.

It is designed to accommodate equipment of the personnel in charge of ramp handling such as: stairs, defrosting equipment, power units and also one of the three baggage trucks.

This hanger is being built to optimize the efficiency of ground operations and due to it’s location, will decrease the time of moving equipment to the 737 processing zone.

It will also free up space in Hangar No.2 therefore allowing to respond to the high demand for accommodation of aircraft.

Another hanger (Hanger No.4) is due to be built in 2010 where the company IMAO will start operations at Limoges Airport.
