Newquay Cornwall Airport is pleased to announce a brand new charter holiday destination from Newquay with Newmarket Holidays.  The trusted tour operator will offer a flight direct from Newquay to Paphos on 4th November 2012 meaning Cornish residents can soak up some winter sun in this popular Mediterranean tourist resort.

Josie Slater, Newquay Cornwall Airport’s Marketing Executive said ‘Cyprus has been on our ‘wish list’ of destinations for quite some time now so its great news to be announcing it just before January when people are looking for some holiday ideas and inspiration.  We’ve worked with Newmarket Holidays for five consecutive years and our passengers have been impressed with their efficient and consistently good service.’

This ancient Mediterranean island paradise, where, legend has it, the Goddess of Love first rose from the waves, has been a favourite destination for winter sun-seekers in Cornwall that often have to endure the long journey by road or rail to other airports.  The short flight from Cornwall’s local airport means a break from the British winter chill in 2012 will be more accessible.  

Alison Keeble, Newmarket Holidays Regional Charter Director said  ‘It’s the first year we’ve been able to offer Cyprus as a  charter destination  within our portfolio of holidays. We are delighted to be adding Cyprus to our existing 2012 programme of  exciting destinations from Newquay Cornwall Airport.  We understand the demand for Cornish residents to be able to fly to a sun destination from their local airport so are happy to provide them with a range of different packages to suit every need.’

Cyprus is the latest destination added to the charter holiday mix at Newquay and compliments existing services with Newmarket Holidays to Lake Garda and Dubrovnik. 

Atlantic Holidays will also operate a holiday to Madeira based on the success of their 2011 departure and airport bosses are in talks about adding further destinations for 2012.

Cyprus can be booked with local travel agents or direct with Newmarket on www.newmarketholidays.co.uk or call 01452 381888.  Tickets are on sale now.
