Luxaviation UK is announcing this
year’s European winter hotspots, with new Eastern European destinations proving
increasingly popular amongst private flyers.
Whilst Geneva and Lyon remain the
most popular destinations for access to the Alps, and Frankfurt attracts
visitors to its Christmas markets, Luxaviation UK is reporting a significant
increase in flight requests to Eastern European airports such as Ljubljana Jože
Pučnik Airport, Slovenia; Sofia Airport, Bulgaria and Skopje Airport in
Macedonia.

George Galanopoulos,
Managing Director, Luxaviation UK, says: “Eastern Europe is definitely on the
rise as a winter destination for our customers. As well as quicker access to the
quieter slopes where there is always good snow cover, customers enjoy the
historical village-style locations, traditional drink and cuisine and really
stunning scenery.
“In the past few weeks, we have
provided more quotes than ever before to the region. Ljubljana provides access
to the Pohorje Mountains, a favourite for night skiing; Sofia is only a short
drive to the popular Bansko resort in the Pirin Mountains and Skopje is just 90
minutes from Popova Sapka where excellent snow cover is virtually guaranteed
between January and March.”
Luxaviation UK’s top ten winter
destinations for the Winter 2017-18 season are:
- Geneva, Switzerland
- Lyon, France
- Frankfurt, Germany
- Oslo, Norway
- Sofia, Bulgaria
- Skopje, Macedonia
- Innsbruck, Austria
- Helsinki, Finland
