16.11.2006 Low fare flights to Dubrovnik, Jersey & Marrakech now on sale for summer 07.
Residents of north London and the northern home counties can benefit from even more low fare scheduled flights from their local airport next summer, thanks to further expansion by Thomsonfly. The low fares airline has added three new routes from London Luton airport for summer 07, including Dubrovnik, Marrakech and daily flights to Jersey.
Available from May 07, flights go on sale on 14 November with lead in prices starting from £16.99 for Jersey, from £29.99 for Dubrovnik and from £34.99 for Marrakech. All prices are one-way including taxes and charges.
Guy Stephenson, Thomsonfly’s commercial director, comments: “Thomsonfly has an increasingly strong presence at London Luton Airport and we are proud to offer consumers in the north London and Luton area flights to such a wide range of fabulous destinations from their local airport. High frequency flights, low prices and flexibility are the continued key to our success in meeting customer demands.”
Fly any day and every day to Jersey – from £16.99 one-way from May 2007. Less than an hour’s flight away, Jersey is the perfect destination for a quick top-up tonic, and with Thomsonfly’s daily flights launching next summer, the island should be top of the list for short breaks as well as longer holidays.
Whether you're an adventure seeker, culture vulture or beach lover, Jersey has plenty to offer every visitor. Sports fans should head for the wide sandy bays in the south that are perfect for water sports, whilst the rocky bays in the north offer superb sheltered diving sites and excellent fishing.
For entertainment, the streets and harbour front are alive with restaurants, cafes and pubs serving fresh seafood. Visit the island’s famous zoo, wile away an afternoon at Jersey Pottery, or indulge yourself at La Mare Vineyards. The Jersey Opera House, Jersey Arts Centre and St James show theatrical and musical productions and also play host to some exciting artists and performers from around the world.
Dubrovnik – from £29.99 one-way, from May 2007
Dubrovnik is the southernmost city in Croatia and abounds in rich cultural heritage. The old town, completed in the 13th century, remains virtually unchanged to the present day and is surrounded by impressive ramparts.
Summer is great time to visit as Dubrovnik’s Libertas Summer Festival is the largest and most celebrated cultural event in Croatia. It offers an irresistible outpouring of music, theatre and dance that attracts a line up of international performers and an ever-increasing number of visitors to the unique setting of the indoor and open-air stages of the historic city.
Once you’ve indulged in enough culture, kick back and relax with a drink in one of the nearby cafes and watch the world go by.
Mystery in Marrakech – from £34.99 one-way, from May 2007
Known for its mystery and charm, Marrakech is perfect for a romantic weekend break, hen party or a swift shopping trip, located just over 3 hours from London. It boasts an eclectic mix of both tradition and modern, as snake charmers, singers, traders and sorcerers haunt the bustling streets whilst enchanting bewildered tourists.
Marrakech’s attraction also stems from the stylish accommodation that has been heightened in recent times. Among the winding streets of the Medina, garden houses or ‘riads’ offer visitors a truly authentic Moroccan experience. Riads consist of just half a dozen rooms around a single courtyard; most are privately operated and provide excellent personal service and individuality.
Thomsonfly remains committed to providing a high level of customer service and offers allocated seating on all flights unlike the majority of low fares airlines, as well as offering passengers the opportunity to pre-reserve seats and extra legroom. Thomsonfly offers customers a free and flexible baggage allowance totaling 25kg, of which up to 10kg can be hand luggage if desired.
Thomsonfly now services 20 UK airports with low fare flights to over 80 destinations.
