LEADERS IN DOMESTIC FLIGHT CONNECTIONS

As announced in February, we continue to expand our routes connecting the Canary Islands with the rest of Spain and beyond. With the launch of our summer schedule, direct flights to Granada commence this month, with two services every week on Mondays and Thursdays. From June onwards, we will also fly to Ibiza, increasing connections between Spain’s two archipelagos with a weekly flight.

Alongside our existing schedule, these two new routes mean we are the leaders in terms of flights between Spanish destinations and the Canary Islands. We operate more direct flights than any other company between the Canaries and the rest of Spain, with a total of 21 routes to 15 destinations and almost one hundred weekly flights from our bases in Tenerife North and Gran Canaria.

By way of evidence, we can point to the 625,000 seats we are putting on sale for the summer season. If we add in our international routes, we will have over one million seats on offer, a demonstration of our ongoing commitment to bringing the Canaries and the continent closer together. We will continue to operate an extensive and varied schedule which can be consulted on our new website that features improved design and accessibility, as well as new functionalities to enhance the user experience.

All the above is geared exclusively to ensuring that we cater for the needs of the Canaries. For Carnival we laid on an extra 15,400 seats on over two hundred additional flights from/ to Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, La Palma, Tenerife North and Tenerife South. We continue to participate in actions such as the Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Gastrotrip, which has already taken place in San Sebastián and Oviedo and this month sees the Gran Canaria capital’s culinary excellences travel to other Binter destinations, namely, Palma and Jerez de la Frontera.

Quality and continuous improvement remain our top priority and our continued work in this regard has led Spain’s AENOR standards and certification body to award Binter Airlines the ISO 9001 certification which accredits best practice in flight operations, inflight service, air navigation management and ground operations.

I would not like to close without saying that this month we celebrate our 34th anniversary as an airline and we do so with the satisfaction of having you as passengers on our flights.

We fly every day for our passengers and would like you to continue to be part of our history. Thank you for choosing us.
