Salzburg
Pop over to the capital of Austria for a visit that’ll cost you £14.49 one way. The birthplace of Mozart and The Sound Of Music is a centre of culture and surrounded by picturesque scenery. Think sprawling hills, stunning church spires, opulent 17th century gardens and not forgetting a stroll through Augustiner Braü – Austria’s largest beer hall.
Marseilles
The delights of the south of France await anyone seeking to relax on the coastline of Marseilles. With waterfront cafes, the Notre-Dame de la Garde cathedral and Calanques National Park to soak up, it’s a must visit, and flights will set you back as little as £16.99 one way.
Bologna
Plan further ahead with a trip to Bologna in March, and you’ll be able to fly for £16.99 one way. As the city warms up and heads into spring, the home of bolognese is well worth a trip. Walk off a full stomach by visiting the Università di Bologna, which is the world’s oldest university, established 930 years ago. Don’t miss out on the Museum of Art and the Santuario di SanLuca, a basilico that offers stunning views of the city.
Munich
If you’re a beer lover, then head to Munich, with flights as little as £16.99 one way. With six breweries across the city, you’ll be able to taste the finest there is at any hour of the day. Lap up the culture in the Kunstareal, the city’s art quarter, which features a mix of modernism, neoclassical and many more genres. And if you’re a petrolhead, there’s even a BMW museum located near Olympiapark.
Zurich
This Swiss city may not be the cheapest, but you can fly there from £16.99 one way. With no shortage of spectacular views, from the observation tower at the top of mountain of Uetliberg or while hiking back down, to the 360 degree view of the city from Jules Verne Panorama Bar in the centre of town. And make it to Hürlimann Areal for a dip in the rooftop pool at its Thermalbad & Spa.
