expanding its list of routes from Birmingham Airport to cater for the popular festive market"

and a cosmopolitan culture. We are sure these flights will be very popular with those passengers
seeking a city break around the festive season"

popular traditional German markets are around Christmas time and Berlin has one of the world's best.

nightlife to enjoy. These flights are running for one month and so we urge passengers to book early
as we expect seats to sell quickly" |
