easyJet has launched a new Lapland postal service that will allow children to post letters to Santa at airports across the UK and Europe to be delivered on flights from major European airports to Rovaniemi, Lapland.
The low-fare carrier anticipates around 200,000 families to fly on easyJet flights during the festive season, with research revealing that 71% of children flying around the holidays are worried that Santa will not be able to find them.
“Christmas is a magical time for families and travelling somewhere festive, for some winter sun, or to see friends and family can make it really special,” said Hannah Wells, Pilot, easyJet. “We hope our Letters to Santa postal service will bring some extra magic to the thousands of families travelling with us around the holidays and to schools in our local airport communities, where our fantastic cabin crew will be making sure that even more wishes are hand delivered to Santa in time for Christmas.”
The orange Letters to Santa post boxes will be located at London Gatwick, London Luton, Bristol and Manchester airports in the UK, as well as Paris Charles de Gaulle, Naples and Milan.
easyJet will operate service to Rovaniemi up to four times a week from Bristol, London Gatwick, London Luton, Edinburgh and Manchester, and to Kittila up to two times a week from London Gatwick and Manchester.
