New ski holidays to take off from Inverness Airport
Inverness is set to gain new ski flights to Austria as ski specialist Inghams unveils its winter programme.
The company will offer two departures from Inverness to Innsbruck, the first time the Austrian city has been served from the Highlands. Flights will depart Inverness on Saturday 26 March and April 2.
Innsbruck – twice chosen as the location for the Winter Olympics - serves as a gateway to 30 high altitude ski resorts in Italy and Austria, from St Anton, which offers some of Europe’s most challenging slopes, to the charm and romance of Kitzbuhel with its medieval centre, upmarket boutiques and cafes, to the party resort of Ischgl, famed for its nightlife and ‘A list’ celebrity concerts.
Inghams will also offer weekly departures to Geneva with holiday packages to 20 high altitude resorts in France and Switzerland. Flights will leave every Saturday from December 26 until 2 April.
Ski holidays booked before September 30 include free ski carriage. Inghams is also offering flight only deals for those who book accommodation separately.
Mr Graeme Bell, General Manager of Inverness Airport, said: "We are delighted that Inghams, one of the UK’s best known ski specialists, is offering new ski flights from Inverness this winter.
"Innsbruck is a first for Inverness Airport and we hope the new route will prove popular so that we can expand the programme and offer even more departures in future years. Geneva has been a welcome addition to our route network over the past two years and we are pleased that Inghams will continue to operate this service."
