New train station opened at East Midlands by Cheap Flights Booker UK
A new railway station was opened this week offering better public transport links to East Midlands airport.
East Midlands Parkway station will be served by more than 100 trains every day, including up to four hourly services to London.
People catching flights from East Midlands will be able to take a shuttle bus to the airport from the rail terminal, which will operate every 30 minutes between 07:00 and 23:30 GMT.
The increase in rail services will benefit thousands of passengers and also help the environment by getting people out of cars and onto trains, according to the Department for Transport.
Opening the new station yesterday (26 January), transport secretary Geoff Hoon said: "We want to encourage more people to use public transport to ease congestion on our roads and one of the best ways of doing this is to offer more choice, which is exactly what this new station does."
East Midlands airport hosts flights from airlines including bmi, Eastern Airways and bmibaby, which serve destinations such as Brussels, Aberdeen and Malaga.
