“Our commitment to the Principality has been demonstrated throughout all these years of presence at Asturias Airport. With an initial offer of 21,700 seats in 2012, we have been increasing our capacity to reach the 285,000 seats that we will offer as of December. Since we started operating our first flights, until today, we have been increasing our presence at this airport convinced of its enormous potential. In this sense, this new route to Fuerteventura allows us to continue with our goal of improving the connectivity of Asturias,” said Gabriel Schmilovich, Chief Strategy Officer of Volotea.
