The charter company Ving has decided to offer direct flights from Skellefteå Airport to one of Europe’s most popular destinations, Mallorca. The flights will take place in the spring and autumn of 2023 and are made possible by a new partnership between Ving and the airline BRA.
The Spanish destination Mallorca is one of the most popular destinations from Skellefteå. The charter operator Ving has now announced that it will be investing heavily in trips to Mallorca from Skellefteå Airport. The trips will take place during the spring and autumn seasons of 2023. The spring season starts on 29 April and runs until 17 June, the autumn season starts on 5 August and runs until 30 September. In total, Ving will operate 17 flights to the popular tourist destination.
The major investment is based on a new cooperation agreement between Ving and the airline BRA, which will operate the flights with modern Airbus 319s.
Both companies have ambitious sustainability goals that, together with Skellefteå Airport’s successful climate work, provide good conditions for more sustainable travel.
Right from the start, all travellers will be able to reduce their carbon footprint by purchasing biofuel for their destination.
– Skellefteå is one of the most expansive regions in the Nordic region and Ving naturally wants to be part of this development. We know that the demand for charter holidays to Mallorca is high, and Skellefteå’s geographical location means that we can reach many well-travelled northerners. In addition, our cooperation with BRA and Skellefteå Airport is perfect for offering more sustainable holiday trips, says Christine Tötterman at Ving.
– Ving is a sought-after charter operator in our region, so we are extremely pleased that they are now investing heavily in Skellefteå with trips to both Gran Canaria and Mallorca. We hope that the tripartite cooperation between Skellefteå Airport, Ving and BRA will both drive forward the work for sustainable holiday travel and also provide opportunities for new exciting destinations from northern Sweden, says Robert Lindberg, CEO of Skellefteå Airport.
Earlier this spring, Ving announced that it will be offering flights to Gran Canaria for the first time this winter and is now expanding that series of flights with 17 new departures to Mallorca.
All trips are bookable.
