Bolzano, 06/02/2024 – SkyAlps has announced two new additions for spring/summer 2024: firstly, from the end of May, the Italian airline will add Stuttgart, the capital of Baden-Württemberg, to its flight plan with take-off and landing in Bolzano. Flights will operate three times a week - every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. Secondly, London will remain on the flight plan throughout the summer due to high demand. The departure and destination airport has changed from Stansted to Gatwick. Flights will operate twice a week, on Wednesday and Saturday.
"Germany is a very important market for us that has great potential", explained Josef Gostner, President of SkyAlps. "We are therefore very happy to connect another German city, Stuttgart with Bolzano, which does not only represent added value for the many enthusiasts of South Tyrol from Baden-Württemberg, but also provides the people of South Tyrol with a direct flight to such an important business centre. With regard to London, we started off well and decided to continue to provide the flight throughout the summer. With Gatwick as the departure and destination airport we meet the strong demands of our passengers and we look forward to the new season".
