By increasing the winter flights available would be the best thing for tourists especially from Birmingham or Manchester..

Try doing flights from Cardiff Airport. At present there are none and people from Wales have to travel to Bristol or Birmingham.

Jane64, it would be helpful if they just laid on one flight a week or even a fortnight. But as you say, there is nothing available after October through to May.

I love Almeria, which is why we have bought a cortijo in the area. However I really don’t understand the mentality of the people born locally. There seems to be no enthusiasm to encourage more tourism to the area. 
The biggest issue being severe lack of flights to the area. How can it be that although there are 2 airports ( one brand new!) if I look for flights from Birmingham between October to April my only option is Alicante. Madness

Jilly I agree with you 100% it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. ..I have to get a cheap flight to malaga and get a bus up to roquetas which isn't too bad, but it would be so much better if there were more flights to almeria during the winter months...

What a shame.... the attraction of this region for us is because it isn’t a tourist zone!  If you want tourist area with flights all year round and constant masses of people go to another destination.
