HC Deb 23 October 1946 vol 427 c380W
107. Mr. D. Marshall

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation the airports he proposes to use for air transport service to Cornwall and the Scilly Isles; the cost of the fare; and when these facilities are likely to be available.

Mr. Lindgren

The airports now in use for the service operating between Lands End and the Scilly Isles are St. Just and St. Mary's. The fares between these two places are 20s. single and 35s. return. Plans are being made for the extension of services to Cornwall from other parts of the United Kingdom. It is not as yet possible to forecast the airports to be used. The date of introduction must depend on such factors as the availability of aircraft and provision of the necessary buildings, ground aids and equipment.
