Although their is not as lot of information about Carlisle, UK's flights behind all this after many years of rejection by the local council when Belgian carrier VLM wanted 4 flights per day from London City, UK back in 1996. Unfortunately Cumbria County Council rejected the idea due to financial support so the plan was dropped since.
The airline that choses the flights will be Scottish carrier Loganair by operating UK domestic flights to London Southend and Belfast-City. And first international flight for Carlisle, UK will be Dublin, Ireland. With flights to Dublin, Ireland for the main reason is for passenger travels will have benefits to connect flights to the United States instead of going to London, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Belfast by clearing US Immigration in Dublin for Aer Lingus or any American airliners this would help the market for Carlisle.
It's too early to tell for the future of Carlisle's future for the airport for Loganair but because the airport is own by Stobart Group, this could mean the future of their airliners, Aer Lingus Regional who is part of Stobart might seek a new hope for new flights to compete with Loganair.
Loganair will be operating Charlisle, UK in June 4th.
