Tim Dwelly, Cornwall Council cabinet member for economic regeneration and investment, said the airline’s collapse was “very, very disappointing”.
He said the council was doing all it could to get a decent carrier on board to take over the Newquay to London route.
“There’s going to be weeks of disruption for people who had booked flights and we’ve got to put them first,” Dwelly said.
“But we are on it in a big way and we’re lining up a a temporary solution, which should be announced hopefully this week; but it will still take a while before it starts.
“But I want everyone to know we’re doing everything we possibly can.”
