Spanair strengthens position in Jerez de la Frontera

Jerez de la Frontera is one of Spanair's key destinations. On its routes to and from Jerez de la Frontera, Spanair has the most extensive domestic flight network as well as being the second placed company in terms of passenger volume.

New routes
Spanair will bolster its operations in Jerez de la Frontera for the summer period. It will launch routes to link Jerez and Tenerife Sur, and Jerez and Gran Canarias, with flights available to passengers every Thursday. These two routes will be exclusively operated by Spanair.

More flights
The company offers four daily flights between Jerez and Madrid from Monday to Friday, plus two on the weekend. In addition, the Jerez-Bilbao route, for which Spanair has a 100% market share, will feature a daily flight, with the carrier increasing flights in comparison to the winter season. Spanair will also introduce a daily flight between Jerez and Barcelona, which will also extend its flight offer for this route compared to the winter period.

It is also relevant to note that approximately 10% of passengers choose Business Avant class on the routes linking Jerez with the cities of Madrid and Barcelona.
