NORDICA’S NEW DESTINATIONS: ST PETERSBURG, HAMBURG & GOTHENBURG
St Petersburg
Year-round St Petersburg flights launched on 15 May, departing 13 times per week. Business travellers and holiday-makers alike have been waiting for this route for a long time. St Petersburg also represents an ideal place for a stopover when travelling onwards in Russia or further afield to Asia, and China in particular. In the opposite direction it offers Russian travellers transit opportunities via Tallinn to the other destinations Nordica serves.
For cultural gourmands, St Petersburg is a true cordon bleu destination. Its lights, its bridges and its famed restaurants are drawcards that keep bringing tourists back to Russia’s capital of culture. The Hermitage art museum, Catherine Palace and Peterhof Park with its many fountains are sights not to be missed.
Pulkovo Airport is 20 km from the city centre. Nordica will be flying passengers to St Petersburg year-round starting from 15 May using its CRJ aircraft. Travel time will be approximately 50 minutes. Tickets start from €49.90 one-way.
