Belfast flights to France, Spain, the Netherlands and more for this weekend getaway –

As society begins to return to some form of normalcy after the coronavirus pandemic, many of us are looking for a chance to escape on vacation.

Several countries recently relaxed travel restrictions, meaning international travel appears more likely for the first time in two years.

But before booking a flight, travelers are still reminded that the rules for traveling abroad can change very quickly, so it’s important to get insurance that covers you if you change your baggage plans.

To make up for lost time over the past two years, Belfast Live has compiled a list of several places to travel to this weekend for your vacation.

With so many options out and about and close to home, there are plenty of options if you want to get away this weekend.

England

There are many options if you want to travel from Northern Ireland to England on the weekends, but the cheapest destination is London.

The cheapest option is to leave Belfast International Airport at London Gatwick at 9:25 PM on Friday 11 March and fly on Sunday 13 March at 6:30 AM to Belfast City Airport.

This flight option compensates you 70 70 round trips with easyJet.

Scotland

Traveling to Scotland is always a good idea, and a flight to Glasgow this weekend is the cheapest option with a return of 11119.

If you want to get into restaurants and museums, you’ll need a pass-through vaccine.
