Rotterdam Base Opens!

Today, UK CityHopper Airlines opened its second base, its first in mainland Europe. A leased Boeing 737-200 will be based there until at least October 1996, and we hope to replace the aircraft with one of our own. Nine routes will initially run from Rotterdam, including three brand new routes to Milan-Malpensa, Vienna & Amsterdam. We hope to extend the base at Rotterdam and hope to make it our main operations & maintenance base in mainland Europe.
