BRITISH AIRWAYS, LIMITED (LONDON-OSLO SERVICE).

HC Deb 22 June 1938 vol 337 c1063

59. Mr. R. Robinson

asked the Secretary of State for Air whether his Department is negotiating with British Airways, Limited, with a view to their continuing the present London-Copenhagen-Stockholm service to Oslo?

Captain Balfour

Preliminary consultations are proceeding with British Airways on the subject of European Air Services, one of which is a London-Oslo service.

Mr. Robinson

As it is proposed to run a service to Oslo, will the Under-Secretary bear in mind that one is already provided by Allied Airways, and will he also bear in mind the recommendation of the Cadman Report that there shall be only one British service to each centre?

Captain Balfour

Allied Airways run from Newcastle to Stavanger, and the advisability of allowing this service to rank for internal subsidy is at present under consideration with the Treasury.
