We've spotted flights from London to Basel in December, arriving and departing on the same day, from £45 return. Perfect for a little Christmas market getaway.

This departs on a Saturday too, so no annual leave is needed for the Monday to Friday workers.

The best part about this day trip is that you can actually visit three countries in one day. EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg is the only airport in the world that serves three cities of three different countries at the same time.

You can start at the Christmas markets in Basel, which are gorgeous. Then, you can head to the Dreiländereck monument, where Switzerland, France & Germany all meet and walk across the Dreiländerbrücke (Three Countries Bridge).

Additional Information

We might be pirates, but we’re an honest bunch. We check all our deals when we review them to make sure everything is available. However, with deals this hot, things change quickly—flight prices fluctuate, hotel rooms sell out, currencies yo-yo. And just so you know, local taxes might still apply – even treasure has its fine print. But mainly, demand for the best deals means the lowest prices don’t last long. If you’ve missed out this time, don’t worry, we’re working on more great offers.
