Air Southwest is to transfer its winter ski flights originally planned to Chambery from Plymouth and Newquay to Grenoble Airport.

The move comes after a request from the local airport authority concerned about congestion at Chambery airport. Grenoble Airport has a wider range of facilities than Chambery Airport, and is also less prone to flight delays during the busy ski season.

Customers affected by the airport change will be contacted individually by Air Southwest to arrange amendment of their bookings.
