Andalus Lineas Aereas will renew its service from Gibraltar to Barcelona as from the end of March, exactly six months after it pulled the plug on the route because of low passenger numbers, reports the Gibraltar Chronicle.

Although the airline has not made an official statement, a report in El Faro newspaper cited a company source saying flights would be daily except Saturdays.

The flights will operate at midday, in between the service to and from Madrid. The flights are already available for purchase on the company’s website.

Ándalus cancelled the Barcelona route last September 28 and complained at the time that it had not received enough support from authorities in Gibraltar.

Following a public clash, government officials and the company’s managers resolved their differences and agreed to push ahead with joint initiatives to market the airline’s services from the Rock.
