Default cheap flights to Rimini

If anyone is thinking of going to Marche this summer and is put off by Ryanairs somewhat greedy school hol prices to Ancona and Pescara check out their prices to Rimini - its a new route starting mid june and it appears to be at least half (sometimes even less)the price of the two Marche airports for probably around an extra 40mins drive. I just saved some guests (a party of 11) over £2000 for returns in August by suggesting they try that route.

Thank you - noted.
For anyone with guests form the US, or who wants to go there the other new route is Pescara - New York direct!
Only once a week, but hey!

Thanks yes I googled it and discovered its only summer months - ends early sept and they want over $1600 return for the month of June - I imagine that Aug would be even more pricy. Was hoping to get direct flights for N Year so thats sadly not a goer, back to Rome it will be I fear..

It only started this year.
We looked at flights for May or September and they were as low as €200, but that was a couple of months ago. Presumably like most cheaper airlines the early bookers get the cheapest seats.
Obviously New is out so far, but who knows if the service gets used they may extend!!!
Best of luck.

The East Midlands to Rimini flights stop at the end of october - hope they're back next summer as I've enjoyed using this route the couple of times I've been over this summer. On some october dates there are flights for £1 including taxes if you book by the end of sunday
