Summer's on the horizon, and the Bavarian Whitsun holidays can't come soon enough! Nuremberg Airport has been serving up vacation vibes since March with a smorgasbord of direct destinations on offer.

With the 2025 summer flight schedule in full swing, it's no wonder Nuremberg Airport expects "record-breaking passenger numbers" during Whitsun. According to airport spokesperson Christian Albrecht, an estimated 300,000 people will be jetting off from Nuremberg during the holidays. That's a tremendous turnout, showcasing the eagerness of the folks in the region to throw on their shades and kick back in the sun.
Party in Antalya, soak up the sun in Mallorca, or island-hop in Greece – these sunny spots are the hottest tickets in town, drawing in over 120,000 passengers during Whitsun.

Now, with all these travelers buzzing about, Nuremberg Airport has some handy tips to help you navigate the holiday rush. Arrive early, expect traffic on May 8, and make use of the baggage machines to sidestep waiting times. Oh, and don't forget to factor in a bit more travel time on May 8, as the Kurban Festival in Nuremberg might cause some congestion.
Eurowings, Nuremberg's go-to airline, is focusing on expanding its network this year. While they're axing the domestic route between Nuremberg and Hamburg, it's all systems go for international and leisure destinations. If the trend continues, Mediterranean, Spanish, Greek, and Italian destinations are likely to dominate the Whitsun Horizon for 2025.
So, pack your swim trunks, your sunglasses, and your sense of adventure, 'cause these Whitsun holidays are gonna be lit! For the most recent and accurate destination updates, keep an eye on the Nuremberg Airport or Eurowings website. Happy travels!
