North East holidaymakers and winter sports lovers will be pleased to hear that a flight to Switzerland is returning to Newcastle Airport this December.
easyJet has resumed its service between the North East and the lakeside city of Geneva with tickets going on sale today from £24.99 one way. Flights will take off from December 10 and there will be twice weekly departures on Wednesday and Saturday throughout the winter season until March 22 next year.
The flights will provide the North East travelling public with a direct connection to Switzerland, with Geneva dubbed a "winter wonderland." Nestled on the southern shore of Lake Geneva to a backdrop of mountains, the city can be used as a base to explore the Alps and is within reach of many Swiss and French ski resorts including Zermatt and Chamonix.
