Decision on Blackpool Airport expected by end of day

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

We'll know by the end of the day if Blackpool Airport has been saved.

Owners Balfour Beatty have warned it's likely the airport will be shut down by October 15th if no buyer is found by today's cut off point.

The airport has been running at a loss for a number of years now.

It'd be a blow to the Island as Citywing currently operates a daily route to and from the town.
