Recommended by TFC
It is a fruitful and growing partnership between Volotea and the Airports of Puglia, where the low-cost airline is present with as many as 12 routes.
Volotea routes to and from Bari, there are 10: 7 connect Puglia's capital to the Hellenic cities of Athens, Corfu, Heraklion/Creta, Mykonos, Santorini, Skiathos, and Zakynthos; 2 lead to Italy's Olbia and Florence (new route 2023); and one route connects the city with Lyon, France. From Brindisi, on the other hand, with Volotea it is possible to reach. Cagliari (new route 2023) and Nantes.
Rich and articulated the Apulian offer, also in terms of the number of places for sale, which in 2023 are as many as 191,000, including 165,000 in Bari, where growth is 36% over last year, and the remainder from Brindisi. Since starting operations in Apulia in 2012, Volotea has operated more than 21,500 flights, carrying more than 2.2 million passengers. Considerable numbers, obtained through several strategic operations put in place in recent months, such as the reactivation of routes that were left uncovered at the beginning of the year from Bari to Olbia and Corfu, and the inauguration of connections to Florence and Cagliari, which can be reached from Bari and Brindisi, respectively.
Not only that, thanks to the recent agreement of commercial collaboration with Eurowings, Apulian passengers can also purchase direct flights from Brindisi to the German cities of Cologne, Dusseldorf and Stuttgart on the Volotea website. Thus, with this operation Volotea is able to offer its passengers flights to yet another European nation.
Passengers who choose Volotea for their travel to and from Bari and Brindisi can therefore count on an even richer range of routes, always benefiting from the convenience, exceptional travel experience and competitiveness that have always characterized Volotea. A quality offer that recently earned the carrier the prestigious Skytrax World Airline Award as "Best Low-Cost Airline in Europe.", a universally known award in the aviation industry, representing an important standard of excellence.
Carlos Muñoz, Founder and CEO of Volotea, said.: "For Volotea, Apulia represents a strategic market and the results we are achieving stimulate us to continue investing in this territory, where we will certainly continue to grow. In addition to offering a rich range of destinations for the vacations of Apulian passengers, thanks to the flights connecting the Airports of Puglia with Lyon and Nantes, we strengthen the flow of incoming tourists eager to discover Puglia, its natural beauty and its excellent food, and in this way we are able to create excellent development opportunities for the entire local tourism and hospitality chain."
"The collaboration with Volotea - said the president of Aeroporti di Puglia, Antonio Maria Vasile - made it possible to achieve important results in terms of traffic growth and network development through a wide range of destinations. Enriching the offer of connections connecting our region with numerous foreign and domestic destinations also helps to make this summer season, which already promises to be excellent, another golden season for our airports. Working synergistically with a carrier that was awarded Best Low Cost Airline 2023 at the World Airline Awards, the main goal is to make the services offered to passengers more efficient and highly qualitative. For this reason, we will continue to work in synergy with Volotea to achieve higher and higher standards of services to be offered to passengers who, over the years have become more demanding."
