Did you know Aberdeen Airport’s been operating since July 1934? Or that it hosts over three million passengers every year, that’s about 8,500 people per day. What an airport!

We love it for lots of reasons, it is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, that’s what we call dedication. It’s got plenty of shops and eateries to ease you into your journey. It’s spent millions on improvements over the past ten years and employs over 2,500 people directly and indirectly. Phew, if that’s not all, we love its slogan: North Scotland’s gateway to the world!

Dalaman

Oh Dalaman, if we could move there permanently we would! It is home to the most gorgeous, long sandy beaches and there is plenty to do for little ones. You can take your pick between building sandcastles or heading for the waterparks... maybe both! Check out some of the local kebabs and Turkish delights, or head for the party towns to soak up the atmosphere. It’s ideal for a sunshine getaway for the whole family.

Verona

Do you have someone to impress? Then let us suggest an indulgent, romantic trip to fair Verona. It’s just a few hours from Aberdeen so you can be in the lap of luxury in next to no time. Visit the balcony where Juliet called for her Romeo in Shakespeare’s famous play. The legend goes that if you rub her statue you will have good luck.

The 2,000 year old Roman amphitheatre boasts the largest opera stage in the world, while wine lovers will have plenty of chances to sample the local delights.

Ibiza

Has it been a long few weeks and you’re dying to party like the stars? Ibiza has to be top of your agenda. It’s packed full of bars, clubs and super clubs. Let the night take over as you wander down the strip in Ibiza Town or San Antonio. Then the awesome beaches are the perfect place to recover from the night before. There are great deals on accommodation and eating out, as well as all those promos for a night to remember.

Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik is absolutely bursting with charming cobbled streets, dappled sunshine beaches and the clearest water you’ve ever clapped eyes on. The city walls are a must, and offer breathtaking views. Grab a guided tour to find out the history behind them. Take a boat trip to one of the nearby islands and relax in the unspoilt beauty. If you’re feeling brave enough cliff jumping is something that’s definitely worth a try.

We think these are well worth a trip from Aberdeen, but don’t forget, they fly to plenty of other destinations too. Check out their website here for the latest.
