The connectivity it provides will be vital in aiding the recovery of the north east’s economy and I’m pleased Mark has joined us as we work to navigate our way through what is an extremely challenging time for both the airport and the region.” 

Mark said: “The success of the airport and region are intertwined and now more than ever, it’s important we rebuild the connectivity on which Aberdeen’s internationally-focused economy is so dependent.
