The biggest discounts of the year for vacation packages on charter flights to the most popular tourist destinations and tours on all continents are available during the “Travel Fest by Paralela45” campaign, an online travel fair organized by Paralela45, running from February 19 to 24, both online and at travel agencies. Summer vacations in Turkey, Greece, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Cyprus, and Egypt are discounted by up to 45%, and can be purchased in installments, up to 12 months, with zero interest. For the Easter holidays, Paralela45 offers trips to Japan, Malaysia – Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam – Cambodia, Uzbekistan, Mexico, South Korea and Jeju Island, the Baltic States, or to discover Medieval France, with prices starting from 985 euros per person, depending on duration and program. The agency is also offering charter flights for Easter holidays to Crete, Hurghada, and Antalya, with prices starting from 482 euros per person, depending on the destination and hotel.
“We are transforming the travel fair into a true festival of exclusive offers and customized vacation packages for every traveler.

The biggest discounts are offered for summer vacations in Antalya and Alanya. Antalya is the main charter flight destination in Paralela45’s portfolio and a favorite among Romanians each summer, having attracted over 400,000 Romanian tourists by charter flight in the summer of 2024. For the 2025 season, flights will be organized weekly from Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Timișoara, Oradea, Satu Mare, Baia Mare, Târgu Mureș, Sibiu, Craiova, Iași, Suceava, Constanța, Brașov, and Bacău to Antalya, and from Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca to Alanya, reducing transfer times to hotels in Alanya and Side.
“The first Romanians will arrive in Antalya this year to spend their Easter vacation. The season starts with the Bucharest flight on April 19, which is already fully booked. Antalya awaits until the end of September, with discounts offered by our Turkish partners during the online and offline travel fair, free child accommodations in May and June, improved services each year, and the indulgence that hoteliers delight us with,” says Ioana Burcea.
