New Flights to Lanzarote, the French and Scottish Connection

The last stall at the International tourism fair, Fitur 2012 has hardly been taken down and already there’s good news for Lanzarote’s tourist industry coming out of the prestigious event in Madrid.

Lanzarote and Sands Beach Resort might have more of a French flair from February with the island’s tourism minister, Astríd Pérez announcing a direct flight from Paris beginning on 19th of February. She told press that French tour operators Thalasso No1 also were interested in introducing another route during summer months, this time linking Nantes/Lyon with Lanzarote.

As well as the French connection, flying to Lanzarote will get even easier for Scottish holidaymakers when British tour operators Jet2 introduce direct flights from Glasgow from 29th of March. The company already operate flights to Lanzarote from Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle and the East Midlands.

Thanks to demand from people wanting to visit Lanzarote, Jet2 will be increasing seats of flights by 29% over the summer months bringing an estimated 112,300 visitors to soak up some of Lanzarote’s generous sun and hospitality.
