Spanish low-cost airline Vueling has announced a new service from Southampton to Barcelona, starting on June 22. It will operate three flights a week from the city.
The news follows confirmation yesterday that the carrier will also launch flights from Cardiff to Alicante and Palma in June, in addition to new flights from the Welsh city to Barelona, starting in March.
Vueling said the new route from Southampton had been made possible following its acquisition of a smaller, A319 aircraft. It has also bought four Airbus A320s, boosting its fleet to a total of 28 aircraft.
