Next summer, travelers from Santander and Ibiza will have a new direct connection option, thanks to the route that Vueling has announced between both cities. This line will be available from June 19 to September 14, with two weekly frequencies that will facilitate travel between these two key tourist destinations. Tickets will be on sale starting next week, according to the airline in a press release.
A solid expansion strategy
The route between Santander and Ibiza is part of the strategy of Vueling, an IAG group company, to strengthen its presence in the domestic market and in the main international corridors. This move is part of an increase of more than one million seats scheduled for the upcoming summer season, representing a 6% growth compared to the previous summer. In addition to this new connection, Vueling will maintain the existing routes from Santander to Barcelona, with 10 weekly frequencies, and Palma de Mallorca, with two weekly flights.
Fleet reinforcement and connectivity
To cope with this expansion of its operations, Vueling will add five new aircraft this year. Three of them will be based at Barcelona airport, which will strengthen key routes to international destinations. The remaining two aircraft will be assigned to other domestic airports, as part of the company’s commitment to boosting domestic and international connectivity in Spain.
