A NEW route to Verona, the setting for Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, is the romantic lead of the summer line-up from Flybe, the biggest carrier at Southampton Airport.

Mike Rutter, Flybe’s chief commercial officer, said: “We’re delighted to be adding a brand new service to Italy from Southampton as well as an extensive selection of popular destinations for our loyal customers in the south of England.”
