New routes from London Stansted Airport

In June, BA will launch a new service to the Dordogne in south-west France with one flight per week in each direction (on Saturdays) between London Stansted and Bergerac airports.

Bergerac is a medieval town that sits on the River Dordogne in Aquitaine. Expect glorious green landscapes, vineyards that run for miles, and old town charm. As you walk down the cobbled streets lined with picturesque half-timbered houses, you’ll find an array of cafes, restaurants and boutiques. Tickets start from £117 one-way and the flight will take just over 90 minutes.

Turkish carrier SunExpress will introduce a route to Kayseri in July. This ancient Turkish city lies on the eastern edge of Cappadocia and is the perfect starting point for exploring the rest of this fascinating region.

Thanks to its unique geological highlights, Cappadocia is becoming an increasingly popular destination for a host of activities from hiking in the stunning Göreme National Park, to paragliding in Mount Ali, hot air ballooning, and water rafting on the Zamantı River. But many visitors fly into Kayseri to access the Erciyes mountain, one of the best ski resorts in Turkey, and just a 30-minute drive from the airport.

London Stansted’s largest airline, with over 150 destinations, will be resuming flights to Lübeck, Germany, starting in summer 2025. This historic port city in northern Germany is renowned for its well-preserved medieval architecture, charming canals, and world-famous marzipan.

From April, Ryanair will also launch new routes to Münster, Germany, and then starting in March, it’ll begin a service to Clermont-Ferrand, France. The return of Clermont marks the revival of this charming French destination at Stansted, last offered in 2019.
