Three Places You Didn’t Know You Could Fly To From Newcastle Airport
Three Places You Didn’t Know You Could Fly To From Newcastle Airport
Newcastle International Airport is often unfairly seen as the poorer cousin of bigger airports like Manchester, Heathrow and Gatwick but offers a variety of unique and less-traveled destinations that can add an adventurous twist to your travel plans.
Here are three places you didn’t know you could reach from Newcastle:
Morocco
Not just one airline flies to Morocco from Newcastle, but two! TUI has introduced direct flights to Agardir, a sunny coastal city, known for its 300 days of sunshine and vibrant markets. And not to be left in the shade, Ryanair offers twice weekly flights to Marrakesh famous for its palaces and gardens.
Check out some great flight only deals to Agadir – this page is super helpful to find the cheapest months to travel.
Lapland
Gone are the days when flying to meet Father Christmas meant travelling to London or Manchester to catch a flight. Your magical trip to the North Pole can now start from Newcastle with TUI flying directly during the winter months, so whether you want to experience the Northern Lights or just check you’re still firmly on the ‘Nice’ list then TUI’s flights from Newcastle have you covered.
You can find out what Jen made of Lapland as she visited just last Christmas.
Channel Islands of Jersey & Guernsey
Exploring the globe doesn’t always mean venturing far, especially with the hidden gems of Jersey and Guernsey only an hour’s flight away from Newcastle. Famed for their stunning beaches, mild climate and unique combination of British and French culture both Loganair and Blue Islands can have you there in a jiffy.
Flights to Jersey are usually around £89 per person with Blue Island, with September being the cheapest month to explore the beautiful island.
The North East is really lucky to have Newcastle International Airport on its doorstep and with these unique destinations the travel doesn’t need to be any less adventurous than it would be from the UK’s larger airports.

This is a great family holiday option. There are a variety of themed onsite hotels at Portaventura and also peripheral hotels that often include tickets.
Comment “Spain” and I’ll send you a DM with some links. For a lower budget option, look at peripheral hotels. We loved the onsite Colorado creek but it is on the more expensive side of how you can visit.
Links we send are affiliate links. We aren’t asked to post or promote particular places.

The first thing we noticed online is how many “regulars” this place seems to have. People don’t just go once, they return year on year. The best sign of a great place. And after visiting we can see why. Although it is expensive, you get what you pay for. The ease of everything already being covered means the holiday feels like a holiday. We didn’t have to say no to the kids when they wanted to do an activity, they could do whatever they wanted.
To help you with the cost I’ve got you a discount code for £100 off per person! Which is a huge saving for a family. Comment “potters” and I’ll send you the code and more info. You need to book this month for either May bank hol, May half term, or the summer hols.
We were invited for a PR visit but had no pressure to post. I always tell brands that we won’t promote something if we don’t think it’s fab 🫶🏻❤️
