00:00Hello and welcome to Manchester World and our travel guide for 2025. Now a new year offers

00:04wonderful new opportunities for traveling and with Manchester Airport on your doorstep

00:08there's a wide range of exciting places to visit right around the world. With that in mind I went

00:12out into Manchester last week to ask a couple of people about the destinations that they're eyeing

00:16up this year. At the moment got nowhere booked but when I booked Greece, when I booked Portugal

00:24soon and um dream location was the Dominican Republic but went there last year. I'm not

00:30going on holiday this year but I'm hoping to go on a ski season in France in like October with

00:34my girlfriend. We were thinking of Canada but now we're thinking more France. I want to go

00:39San Francisco yeah I'm a big basketball fan like the Golden State Warriors so that's my

00:44my dream location. I haven't planned anything just yet but I'm thinking of going to New York in the

00:49summer. I've not spent yeah I feel like I've not seen it in the summertime. I've always happened

00:54to go in the winter because everyone's like oh Christmas in New York but like I want to see

00:58Central Park in the summer when it's all green. Yeah that is cool yeah. I want to book a couple

01:02more I think I'm going to go in Malta in September um probably get that booked like springtime. Now

01:09there are way too many different options and opportunities for us to run through in this

01:13little three minute video so let's focus instead on some of the new opportunities that are offered

01:17from Manchester Airport. The first and perhaps the most exciting is Milan with services now being

01:22operated by EasyJet. Starting at the end of March flights are looking like they could be as low as

01:26£75 for a return and that's a truly remarkable offer for big lovers of Italian cuisine and

01:31culture. The city is home to Leonardo da Vinci's remarkable painting of the Last Supper as well as

01:35some spectacular views and museums but for many sports obsessed mancs the key to Milan is the

01:40football culture. With both Milan and Internazionale based in the city it could be an amazing opportunity

01:45to take in a game. Another new EasyJet offer can take lucky travellers to the city of Rennes in

01:49France. The city resides in Brittany an area of great historic importance and is the home to some

01:54of the most amazing architecture and some of the best food in the western world. There's a phenomenal

01:57market at the Place de l'Elyse with the street festival of nightfalls being a year highlight

02:01during July. There's amazing restaurants with traditional Breton crepes and local cider being

02:05delicacies. There's also the local football team who've performed to a high standard recently in

02:09European competitions and some of the loveliest cobble streets that you'll have ever seen. Now

02:13those flights don't start until June but if you can get in early you can still bag a return flight

02:16for £80 which is a remarkable value again. The final new offer for the year comes courtesy of

02:21Jet2 who have flights to Salerno on their slate for 2025. They start in May and are every Monday

02:26with the cheapest fares coming in at around £70 each way. While mildly more pricey than the other

02:31options as a visitor to the Amalfi Coast recently I can't tell you just how brilliant it is. As with

02:36every area of Italy food is at the heart of its charm with phenomenal pizza and pasta dishes being

02:40reinforced by some of the best lemon-based products you'll ever come across. It's the

02:43spiritual home of limoncello and it has phenomenal views of the sea to boot. With Naples and Pompeii

02:49easily accessible via the train system it is an opportunity that could really turn 2025 into

02:54something special. That's all for this video and our 2025 travel guide. Follow Manchester World
