Important update for Doncaster-Sheffield Airport passengers after closure speculation

Passengers have been advised to continue with their holiday plans and check in normally for flights despite the announcement that Doncaster-Sheffield Airport may close permanently at the end of summer. The hub was formerly known as Robin Hood Airport and operated routes to holiday destinations in Europe as well as the USA, Mexico and Egypt.

It was used as an important hub by Thomson - now known as TUI - when it opened in 2005 and other airlines also came on board including Wizz Air, which also operated regular daily flights to Eastern European nations including Poland and Romania. But some of these and services to a range of holiday destinations were axed suddenly last month.

However flights to several destinations remain unaffected. A spokesperson for Doncaster Sheffield Airport said: “Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) is disappointed that Wizz Air has, without prior notice, permanently cancelled 13 summer and winter routes, effective from June 10, 2022."
