A BUDGET airline has announced a route between Britain and a major European city.
Transavia – a subsidiary of Air France KLM – is launching a service from London Stansted to Rotterdam in the Netherlands.
The route will be launched on April 3 next year, with around four flights a week, Business Traveller reports.
These will be on Sunday and Monday lunchtimes, and Thursday and Friday evenings, it is understood.
Rotterdam serves as a trendy destination for culture vultures — crammed full of art and world-class grub.
Demolished by the Nazis in World War Two, Rotterdam has been revitalised in recent years.
The lesser-known Dutch city is crammed full of art and world-class grub, making it an ideal city-break destination.
The Cube Houses are some of the city’s most standout pieces of architecture.
Rotterdam is also home to the world’s first Floating Farm.
Located in the harbour, the first floating dairy farm in the world produces fresh products from 40 cows who live there.
Make sure to grab a bite to eat at one of the outdoor bars overlooking the Maas River.
Grab some traditional Dutch bitterballen with your drink — these deep-fried croquettes, made from stewed meat and served with mustard, are the perfect bar snack.
Head to the futuristic-looking Markthal for yet more food.
The giant food hall is packed with vendors selling grub from around the world as well as traditional local fare.
The news comes after The Sun reported last month that a new theme park is set to open in Rotterdam next spring.
Attractiepark Rotterdam is slated to open in March 2025, according to its owner Hennie van der Most.
