Located in the heart of Tuscany, Florence is a city that spills over with art and culture. Every alleyway and square feels like a living museum of the Renaissance era. Explore grand piazzas like the Piazza della Signoria, where the famous Neptune Fountain and a replica of Michelangelo's David stand, the iconic Florence Cathedral that stands tall with its red-tiled dome or the Uffizi Gallery that shelters some of the world's most prized artworks.

Florence promises an experience-rich getaway with artisan shops, mouth-watering Tuscan cuisine, and views stretching over rolling vineyards and olive groves. Food enthusiasts can indulge in authentic Tuscan dishes like ribollita or pappa al pomodoro at local trattorias. For panoramic views, a climb to Piazzale Michelangelo at sunset is a must, where the city's historic beauty unfolds beneath a fiery sky, with the Ponte Vecchio bridge casting reflections on the serene Arno River.

As for flight redemption with Avios, British Airways is offering a direct Avios-only flight from London City to Florence. Departures are set for the 23rd of August 2024, with a return flight on the 30th of August 2024.

London City to Ibiza (IBZ)

Ibiza is an island of contrasts. By night, it's the heart of global club culture, drawing music aficionados from around the world to its legendary beach parties and nightclubs. By day, however, a different Ibiza emerges. Peaceful beaches with azure waters offer a serene escape, while the UNESCO-listed Old Town transports visitors to a bygone era with its cobbled streets and ancient architecture. This duality is what makes Ibiza an exciting destination, catering to both the party seekers and those in search of Mediterranean serenity.

London Heathrow to Corfu (CFU)

An Ionian gem, Corfu offers travellers vast landscapes, cerulean waters, and timeless architecture. At its heart is Corfu Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site encapsulating centuries of diverse cultural influences, featuring Byzantine churches alongside Parisian-style arcades and local markets. 

Start at the Old Fortress and wander through the Esplanade, Europe's largest square, lined with cafes offering the island's famous kumquat delicacies. Explore the alleys of the historic town, and you might find yourself in front of the Saint Spyridon Church, a notable religious landmark housing relics of the island's patron saint.

Beach lovers can gravitate to the coves of Paleokastritsa or the famed Canal D'Amour in Sidari, known for its unique rock formations. For an immersive nature experience, a 220 km hiking path called the Corfu Trail winds through the island's diverse landscapes, from coastal trails to olive-clad hills. Don't miss the local gastronomy – sample "pastitsada," a spiced meat dish, or "sofrito," a tender veal preparation, to truly savour Corfiot flavours.
