London, May 23: British Airways will launch its first-ever flight to Tromsø, Norway, starting Dec 1.
This marks the airline’s most northerly destination, known for its spectacular aurora borealis views and winter activities like skiing, mountaineering, and whale watching.
Tromsø is also famous for its picturesque Christmas markets, especially the one at Stortorget.
Neil Chernoff, British Airways’ Chief Planning and Strategy Officer, said: “Those who missed the northern lights in the UK need not worry! We are excited to welcome Tromsø to our route network – it is a growing winter leisure market thanks to its abundance of cold-weather activities and we’ll be the only premium carrier operating there from the UK. We’ve optimised the schedule for three- and four-night trips, which we know are perfect for a destination like this.”
Return flights are available from £153 and will run twice a week until March 27, 2025.
British Airways Holidays offers packages, including three nights at the Comfort Hotel Xpress Tromso from £379pp, travelling in January 2025, with economy return flights from London Heathrow.
