Lets Get Travelling

The expansion of low-cost airlines, such as easyJet, has meant that previously hard to reach areas of Spain are now much more accessible for holidaymakers.

The decision of many low-cost airlines to fly into smaller, regional airports in European countries has altered the traditional holiday landscape. Louise Hall, business director of Primelocation.com said, “Barcelona and the Costa Brava region as a whole have become more popular with UK holidaymakers over the last two to three years. Inland Murcia has again proven popular and Mallorca has experienced huge popularity in recent years, becoming an expensive jewel with large numbers of properties valued at £1m plus.”

From the end of March, British Airways is set to launch new short haul routes from Heathrow, Gatwick and London City airports to Malaga, Alicante, Ibiza, Palma and Gibraltar.
