The Grand Unveiling: A Winter Wonderland Awaits

First Arrival: The inaugural flight touched down in Ivalo at 14:30 sharp—perfect timing, as passengers were immediately treated to snow-capped scenery that made them forget they were ever in an airplane. Honestly, they probably thought they’d been transported straight to a Hallmark Christmas movie.

Ceremony Moment: British Airways, Finavia, and Airpro threw a little shindig on the ground with local dignitaries, including Tommi Kasurinen, the municipal manager of Inari (which, by the way, is the coolest job title ever). Together, they raised a glass to snow, reindeer, and what might be the most epic winter vacation spot on the planet.

Finavia’s Vision: Petri Vuori, the route development whiz at Finavia, explained how these new flights will make Lapland even more accessible. So, yeah—thank him for making your snowy adventure just a click away. British Airways Unveil Exciting Direct Flights to Ivalo from Gatwick 2024

When Can You Get There?

The Ivalo route will run twice a week during the winter season—on Tuesdays and Fridays—so you’ve got plenty of chances to escape to the land of snowflakes, reindeer, and that mysterious Finnish thing called sisu (basically, Finnish for “I can totally handle this weather”).

Why You Should Care (Besides the Reindeer Selfies)

It’s Lapland, Baby: Ever wanted to be on Santa’s actual turf? Well, this is your chance. Plus, you can check off “witness the Northern Lights” and “become best friends with a reindeer” from your bucket list.

Get Ready for Snow Overload: Forget the cold, gray British winter. Now you can immerse yourself in a winter wonderland of fresh snow, crisp air, and snowshoeing through forests. It’s snow much fun!

Reindeer Selfies for Days: Ivalo is now easier to get to, and you know what that means—reindeer selfies. Well, they don’t actually take selfies, but you’ll get some epic pictures anyway. #SorryNotSorry
