Ryanair, a low-cost airline, will run nine routes from Bournemouth Airport this summer instead of the 16 it ran last year due to the fact that the carrier does not have enough aircraft.
The constraints means that the summer timetable includes destinations such as Palma, Barcelona Girona, Faro, Alicante, Malaga, Murcia, Tenerife, Malta and Gran Canaria.
The news came as budget airline Flybe is set to begin its new operation from Bournemouth.
Flybe announced that they would be opening the new base at the airport from March 29. Flybe includes destinations such as Amsterdam, Manchester, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Jersey, Dublin, Deauville (Normandy) Toulon and Biarritz.
It remains to be seen if Flybe will take on destinations that Ryanair cut, such as flyights to Rhodes and Hania last year.
