“After making it through the dark winter months, we know many of our customers are relying on April’s Easter break to catch up on some much-needed vitamin D.”
‘Optimal Conditions’ for Sunshine, Fun, and Exploring
Holidaying in Egypt, passengers can enjoy deep-water snorkelling, boat trips, desert safaris, and waterparks. If choosing Cape Verde, customers can also enjoy long beach walks.
