VLM Airlines, the carrier which offers the largest number of flights from London City Airport, will introduce an additional return service to Manchester from 1st March, 2007, bringing the total of return flights to nine each weekday. At the same time, the carrier is optimising its schedule to offer a greater number of departures at peak times, allowing business travellers more flexibility when planning their meetings in either city.

VLM Airlines introduced its London City to Manchester service in September 2002. Despite intense competition from other airlines and rail services too, passenger numbers have grown each year since 2002. The route has become an established and popular link for business people travelling between Manchester and Central London, with over 113,000 travellers choosing to use the fast and convenient service in 2006.
