TUI will continue to run its Lapland day trips, the perfect way to enjoy the Christmas cheer with a festive-packed visit to Kittilia, with trips running from December 1 –January 2, giving customers more flexibility.

Those travelling to the most Christmassy place on earth can choose from a range of stand-out festive resorts, including the SnowClubs Snowy Wilderness Lodge and Lapland Hotel Hetta, both of which are ideal for those wanting a truly magical winter wonderland experience.

Then there is the Glass Resort, a best-seller tucked away in the forest of Rovaniemi. Each tepee-shaped apartment is made of glass so customers can easily see panoramic views of the snow-covered landscape.

TUI’s Lapland Winter 2024 programme will be available to book for customers with flights available from seven regional airports; Gatwick, Birmingham, East Midlands, Newcastle, Bristol, Glasgow and Manchester.

Richard Sofer Business Development and Commercial Director comments: “Lapland has always been an important destination for TUI, and even more so because we know how much this magical destination means to our customers.

“At TUI we like to make dreams such as seeing the Northern Lights, meeting Santa in his home, and husky sleigh-riding in the snow, become a reality, and ensure that families make memories that will last a lifetime.”

The Lapland 2024 winter programme will be available in TUI retail stores and independent travel agents.
