Tickets On Sale for New Tahoe Direct Flights For 15-16

Published : 05-Nov-2014 12:08



Tickets are going on sale this week for a new direct service from London Gatwick to Reno in Nevada which is scheduled to launch in just under 14 months' time for winter 2015-16.

Reno-Tahoe International Airport is one the closest airports to major ski resorts in North America including Squw Valley and Heavenly. Passengers can see ski runs from the airport's runways upon landing and it is a quick 45 minute to one-hour drive from airport baggage claim to the ski lifts – compared with 3-4 hours from San Francisco, the nearest major international hub currently used by most to access Tahoe's slopes.

The twice weekly service from Thomas Cook Airlines commencing on 19th December 2015 will see tickets priced from £399 return, with a new Premium service available from £599 return. The service, believed to be the first on this route and run in partnership with Ski Lake Tahoe, will provide a twice weekly service until 9th April 2016.

The flight will be contingent upon approval of landing rights by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection and will use recently refurbished A330 aircraft. http://www.thomascookairlines.com
