Fly Direct with Royal Caribbean

All most daily I am being asked by passengers “if we take the cruise lines flight packages can we fly from Stanstead?” and unfortunately normally the answer is no and they have to opt for Gatwick or Heathrow instead.
So I was really pleased when I heard this announcement from Jo Rzymowska the general Manager for Royal Caribbean International UK and Ireland.

As from June 2011 Royal Caribbean will launch its first direct cruise connection from London Stanstead, using BA charter flights to Venice.
The flights will connect to a seven-night Adriatic sailing on the Voyager of the Seas

I think this is great news as around 6.7 million people live in the catchment area on Stanstead and I know personally being able to fly from my local airport is always a deciding factor when I‘m choosing my holiday!!
