AN airline is launching a new flight from Glasgow to a popular island destination for the first time.
Tui UK is expanding its holiday offering of winter flights and will now operate a direct flight from Glasgow Airport to Sal in Cape Verde.
The new addition brings TUI's winter 23/24 flight offerings to 18 destinations for those hoping to chase the sun in the colder months.
It also coincides with a rise in popularity for Cape Verde as it offers year-round hot temperatures and fantastic all-inclusive resorts.
A six-hour flight brings visitors to white-sand beaches, coastal towns and modern hotels.
Sal's range of traditional restaurants, city-sized resorts and water sports activities also make it Cape Verde's most popular island holiday hotspot.
Flights from Glasgow will begin weekly from Friday November 3.
Phillip Iveson, Commercial Director for Tui UK&I, said: “We’re extremely excited to start taking guests from Glasgow to Sal.
"Cape Verde is an incredible holiday destination which is great value and I’m thrilled that we’re now able to give visitors from Scotland the opportunity to discover a winter sun destination they may not have thought of previously.’’
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
