Find out what’s occurrin’ in Lapland

Having to travel into England to fly for a holiday isn’t on anyone’s Christmas wishlist. But luckily, the festive holiday of a lifetime is only a long film’s duration away for the good folk of Wales, as our flights are direct from Cardiff to Lapland, where amazing adventures await. 

Depart from the airport in the Welsh capital to Lapland this winter on a magical day trip or an Arctic Spirit getaway. Our exclusive charter flight operates direct to Enontekio in the far north of Lapland. It’s just a 3.5-hour flight from Cardiff but the snow-covered fells of the Arctic Circle are a world away from the Welsh valleys. 

Once you land in True Lapland amid the dramatic snowscapes – a picture-perfect backdrop for the winter wonderland that Santa calls his home – you’ll be glad you made the trip. The huskies and reindeer will be eager to meet you – as will the Grand Old Man himself! Play in the snow and ride a snowmobile down a frozen river before your journey back to Cardiff to be home in time for supper. 

What a day (or more) of adventure!
