Almost the same fare as Iberia ( Air Nostrum )
Flights on the same days will cost you 160 € if you fly Iberia.

I saw that the flight will be operated by LTE.
Why is that ?
Best regards,

Air Asturias uses the AOC of LTE, and their plane EC-ISI is lsf/opb LTE.

According to "Airliner World" march 2007 :
Air Asturias , which had launched last November, suspended all flights on January 26, due to low costomer demand.
Its sole aircraft, an A320, has been returned to the lessor, charter operator LTE International Airways.
