I like to consider myself at least reasonably geographically aware, but one of the advertisers on this website has gone for an all out push on cheap flights to Ornskoldsvik. Where, I here you ask - well, I was thinking exactly the same, and no, for once, this isn’t the latest obscure Ryanair destination.
It turns out that Ornskoldsvik, population 29,000 according to Wikipedia, is on the eastern coast of Sweden, about half way between Stockholm and the border with Finland. Flights to Stockholm are provided courtesy of Hoga Kusten Flyg - but unsurprisingly, there are no flights to Ornskoldsvik from the UK - yet!
I wonder if somewhere like Ornskoldsvik ever gets on Ryanair’s radar - technically, it looks like the runway, at 2,014 metres, is long enough to handle their Boeing 737-800 aircraft, and the airport even offers charter flights to Turkey during the summer season.
