Eastern Airways, the UK’s leading independent business airline, is sponsoring the first ever internet café service at this year’s British Travel Trade Fair (BTTF). BTTF will be held at the NEC, Birmingham
during
2-3 March 2005, and is the premier annual event for UK tourism with
over 300
suppliers of British travel and tourism promoting their products and
services to potential buyers.With 23 scheduled routes between 17 UK regional airports, this is the
perfect vehicle for Eastern Airways which will be represented at the
event
by Keith Watson, Sales & Marketing Director and Don Yule, Sales Manager
Scotland. The airline is a sizeable operator at Birmingham
International
airport with regular flights to Inverness, the Isle of Man and
Newcastle.

“We are delighted be involved with this year’s BTTF in Birmingham. It
is a
great opportunity to meet other suppliers of domestic travel and
highlights
our commitment to developing our network to both leisure and business destinations,” said Keith Watson. “Sponsoring the new internet café
was a
natural choice for us. Just like Eastern Airways, the internet is a
terrific
business enabler.”

“The need for an on-site internet access facility at BTTF was
requested by
both exhibitors and visitors so that they are able to keep in touch
with
their current businesses during show hours,” said Graeme Barnett, Event Director, BTTF.  “As a result, we have installed an Internet café on
the
show floor to meet this growing demand and are grateful to Eastern
Airways
for its support of this new venture.”

Eastern Airways recently announced further route expansion across its
network and fast track business facilities at a number of its airports.
