Exeter Airport creates 25 jobs as it looks to continue pandemic rebound

Exeter Airport has launched a recruitment drive for 25 newly created jobs in anticipation of a busy summer season, as it looks to continue to rebound from the pandemic.

The transport hub said it was expecting to handle 450,000 passengers this year, connecting them directly with 26 destinations including new routes to Faro in Portugal and year round connections to the US.

In its previous financial year to the end of March 2022, the airport reported a narrowed operating loss of £1.4m, compared to £3.3 a year earlier, with passenger numbers of 170,000. Turnover was up to £11.2m from £6.3m in 2021 previous, though still short of the £24.2m recorded for 2019/20.
