Airport Comments
Morten Mortensen, head of route development at Copenhagen Airport, said, “I am sure that the new routes will please many passengers, who will now again have the opportunity to take a direct route to both Nantes and Marseille. Volotea is one of the major low-cost airlines in Europe, and it is important for Copenhagen Airport that Volotea sees potential in CPH and chooses to open two new routes."
