You’ll be able to fly from seven regional airports to join a P&O Med cruise on Ventura this summer.

Direct charter flights will be available from Bournemouth, Belfast, Cardiff, East Midlands, Glasgow, Newcastle and Stansted. Flights are also available from London, Manchester or Birmingham as standard.

P&O Cruises MD Christopher Edgington said: “This is great news. We all want our holidays to be made as easy as possible and our new regional airport departures for the Fly-Med cruises do exactly that. They will cut the travel time dramatically from home to holiday, providing even quicker access to the sun.”

Ventura, has pools, kids’ clubs and a Marco Pierre White restaurant. A variety of seven and 14-night fly-cruise holidays are available from March to October. Ventura will depart from either Venice or Genoa and sail round the Greek Islands, Dalmatian coast, French Riviera and take in some of the region’s most iconic cities including Rome, Venice, Naples, Dubrovnik and Florence, as well as other smaller destinations including Kotor and Ajaccio in Corsica.
