UK air charter company LEA Northern Ltd has moved its operation from Sheffield to Leeds Bradford International airport.

The move has given the company more opportunities to extend its charter operation – the major

benefit being the 24-hour availability at the airport, which will give the company more flexibility on its PA31 Piper Chieftain.

Said station manager Nigel Berry: “We are very pleased that the move has happened. As part of our commitment to our clients, we have invested in customer care at Leeds. Passengers can relax in our departure lounge before being driven to their aircraft in our new executive transport. We believe that we can now start to see the operation go from strength to strength, and compete more effectively with other companies.”
