Ryanair’s MIPIM flight unveiled

RYANAIR is laying on a dedicated service to Nice in March to cater for those attending the annual international property convention MIPIM.

The service has been arranged by the property division of Manchester Airports Group which is also leading the development of Airport City, a £650m enterprise zone project at the airport.

The MIPIM flight departs from Manchester Airport on Monday March 11 at 10:10 and returns the following Friday at 12.45.

A separate travel package is also available that includes coach transfers between Nice Airport to and from Cannes for MIPIM.

Stephanie Mullenger, property director at MAG said: “MIPIM is a vital date in our calendar as we join the rest of Manchester on the property trail in Cannes.

“We have much to shout about as we continue to take our Airport City project forward, following planning submissions and the launch of a global search for delivery partners. MIPIM is a key opportunity to showcase this major development to an international audience and to meet several prospective partners at once.”

Lesley Kane, head of sales and marketing for Europe at Ryanair, said: “Ryanair is delighted to be working with Manchester Airport and Marketing Manchester as the airline of choice for 2013’s MIPIM show at Cannes in March.”
