HC Deb 09 December 1964 vol 703 cc197-8W
67. Mr. Galbraith

asked the Minister of Aviation what was the average weekly number of passengers carried by the British Overseas Airways Corporation in direct non-stop flights between London and Prestwick and between Prestwick and London in each of the last five years.

Mr. Stonehouse

The numbers, which comprise in the main passengers in transit between London and North America, are as follows:

Year Average weekly number
London-Prestwick Prestwick-London
1960–61 350 325
1961–62 214 195
1962–63 191 126
1963–64 205 72

I regret that the corresponding figure for 1959–60 is not readily available.
