Travel provider with new summer destination from Cologne/Bonn – operated by Eurowings
This summer, Cologne Bonn Airport has a real insider tip on offer: as of May, travel provider OLIMAR will be offering a weekly flight – every Saturday – to Porto Santo nonstop. The small Portuguese island is located about 42 km northeast of Madeira and is regarded as its sister island. The weekly full charter flights are operated by Eurowings.
"We are delighted about this individual, rather uncommon destination in our flight plan. With OLIMAR, passengers from Cologne/Bonn can go on holiday knowing they'll be well cared for and comfortable," says Johan Vanneste, CEO of Flughafen Köln/Bonn GmbH.
Porto Santo, also known as the Golden Island, is popular with travellers particularly because of its 9 km long, golden sandy beach on its south coast. The rough hinterland also attracts active travellers, such as hikers, but golfers will also find some attractive opportunities here far away from any mass tourism.
The new destination from travel provider OLIMAR is now being offered as a package that includes a four-star hotel from €549 for seven days. Combinations with Madeira are also possible. For children, OLIMAR offers a fixed price from €349.
