A number of interesting airlines fly within the UK and Europe from Blackpool.  In order of most flights to least:
The only commercial jets at Blackpool after short closure are:


Jet2 - B737-300 - They have a small base here operating regularly to the Mediterannean.<br>
Citywing - LET 410 Turbojet - Operated by Van Air Europe, services to Isle of Man and Belfast City resume on 1 April 2015.
Manx2 - LET-410 - They operate several times a day out to the Isle of Man.<br>
FlyBE - SAAB 340 - Operate a daily flight to Belfast via the Isle of Man.<br>
Aer Arran - ATR72 - A daily flight over to Dublin.


There is also a relatively large executive jet/prop operation from Blackpool, and Isle of Man (M- registrations) are a common sight.  There is a large helicopter operation, and many light aircraft based from here.
However, regular private jets and helicopter classes fly from this airport.
