THOMSONFLY ANNOUNCES NEW LOW FARES ROUTE TO JERSEY
25 April 2006
Thomsonfly has today announced a brand new low fares route from Cardiff to Jersey over this summer.
These new flights go on sale today (25 April 2006) at www.thomsonfly.com with one way fares starting
from as little as £16.99 including taxes and charges.
From 25 May this year Thomsonfly will be offering four flights a
week to Jersey from Cardiff International Airport. This gives
Thomsonfly passengers from Cardiff and the surrounding areas the
chance to visit the most southerly island of the British Isles for
great value for money. The new route is in addition to the low
fares flights already offered by Thomsonfly to beach and city
destinations around the world.
Jersey offers some of the most stunning scenery in the British
Isles, particularly along the dramatic cliffs of the west coast - a
haven for surfers. Alternatively visitors can check out the clear
water and sandy bays in the south of the island or for keen divers
the rocky bays of the north offers some superb sheltered diving
sites. As well as the great watersports available, Jersey is also
perfect for keen walkers and nature lovers, with a comprehensive
network of footpaths which cover the whole island. With one of the
best sunshine records in Britain Jersey is a popular holiday
getaway, and it's not hard to see why.
Thomsonfly hopes that this new route comes to the rescue of
disappointed passengers who had previously hoped to travel to
Jersey with Air Wales.
Maria Heckel, marketing director of Thomsonfly, said; "The low
fares flights from Cardiff which we have already put on sale have
proved such a success we are keen to grow the flights offering at
the airport as much as we can. The new route to Jersey is further
proof of Thomsonfly's commitment to Cardiff and we are pleased to
be able to continue to offer great value flying to the people of
South Wales.
Flights will operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays
allowing for both long weekend trips away to the Channel Islands as
well as weekday business trips.
Jon Horne, managing director of Cardiff International Airport,
said; "Thomsonfly's low fares programme from Cardiff is already
extensive and successful. We are delighted that they have chosen to
offer such a substantial choice of regular and reliable flights to
the Channel Islands marketplace.
Thomsonfly already operates six flights a week to Jersey from both
Coventry and Doncaster and todays announcement comes just two weeks
after the airline announced new low fares flights from Cardiff to
three more destinations (Tenerife, Alicante and Malaga) for winter
2006/7.
These new summer low fares flights means that Thomsonfly is now
flying to a total of 26 destinations from Cardiff this summer -
Jersey, Malaga, Alicante, Lanzarote, Bodrum, Bourgas, Corfu,
Dalaman, Faro, Gerona, Heraklion, Ibiza, Gran Canaria, Mahon,
Monastir, Naples, Paphos, Palma, Reus, Rhodes, Tenerife, Varna,
Zakynthos, Florida, Dominican Republic and Cancun.
Thomsonfly remains firmly committed to providing a high level of
customer service on all its services. The airline offers allocated
seating at check in on all of its flights to over 80 destinations
worldwide from 24 UK airports - more UK departure points than any
other airline.
Flights can be booked at www.thomsonfly.com, at any Thomson shop or
by calling 0870 1900 737.
