EasyJet has announced flights from a major UK airport to a popular European destination which is perfect for a winter getaway.
Flights to Innsbruck in Austria now run from Birmingham Airport and will operate once a week throughout winter.
Seats are available to book at EasyJet.com and via the mobile app, with fares starting from just £14.99.
Innsbruck is located in the heart of the Austrian Alps and the city is an exciting destination to visit over the colder months.
It boasts a vibrant Old Town, a castle, a palace, a funicular, an alpine zoo and a stunning cathedral.
The flights from Birmingham to Innsbruck will run every Sunday until the end of March, providing a new convenient connection for those in the Midlands seeking a sensational ski or snowboard holiday to some of Austria’s world-famous resorts.
This includes St Anton, the birthplace of modern alpine skiing, which is only one hour away from Innsbruck.
Nestled in the snowy mountain landscape, Innsbruck is packed full of adventures for the non-skier too, with a charming old town, home to the sparkling Swarovski crystal company, and an imposing imperial palace from the former Habsburg dynasty that cannot be missed.
EasyJet UK Country Manager Ali Gayward said: “Our new service from Birmingham to Innsbruck in Austria provides our customers with even more connections to some of Europe’s top ski resorts.
“With demand for flights to the Austrian Alps taking off, we’re sure this fantastic new route will prove popular with our customers in the Midlands this winter season.”
Aviation Director at Birmingham Airport Aviation Director Tom Screen said: “EasyJet’s launch of the Birmingham-to-Innsbruck route highlights our commitment to expanding travel options for customers in the Midlands.
“This new connection not only supports the growing demand for flights to the Austrian Alps but also provides an excellent opportunity to explore Innsbruck’s rich culture and stunning scenery.
“Birmingham Airport is proud to collaborate with EasyJet to enhance connectivity and travel experiences for our passengers.”
