It currently operates the London service twice a day during the week and once on Sundays.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Loganair announced in April that it intended the end the Dundee-London service on 18 September. That has been extended by a few weeks but will mean all operations ending.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The public service obligation (PSO) route has been supported by the local authority and the Scottish and UK governments since 2014. <\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The decision to withdraw has created uncertainty for more than 30 workers, from air traffic controllers to firefighters, security staff and baggage handlers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Loganair said the London contract was \u201cfinancially unsustainable\u201d and it would help its Dundee-based employees explore alternative roles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Frequent flyers have urged Loganair to consider reinstating the Dundee-London City route, with some saying it provided more convenient access to the financial centre.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">A Loganair spokesperson said that the airline had not been able to identify an alternative London route that would allow it to remain sustainable.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Simple Share Buttons Adder (8.6.0) simplesharebuttons.com -->           \t            <\/div>\n<p><script>\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n{if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\nif(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\nn.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\ns.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script',\n'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n fbq('init', '1192059580980274'); \nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script>#Loganair #withdrawal #puts #Dundee #Airport #doubt #Daily #Business<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Loganair: route is unsustainab&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32636,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2],"tags":[2833,266,265,10711,16890,19010,17072,3483,13795],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32635"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32635"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32635\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/32636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/microvibenews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
