The most exciting news, though, is the price. One way journeys will start from as little as €19, according to theSun, with options to Milan and Brussels beginning at €39 and Munich, Prague and Venice starting at €49.
Oh, and a ticket will include two pieces of hand luggage – a personal item plus an eight-kilo cabin bag. No unnecessary baggage fees here – we can thank the EU’s new hand luggage rules for that
For the aerophiles, it’s reported Fly2Galicia will be using an Airbus A320, which has a capacity of between 150-190 passengers, but that a second aircraft might be acquired for next year’s summer season.
Technically, a yet-to-be announced operator will be the one running the first few flights, and Fly2Galicia will take over when the services are up and running.
