Two more famous faces, former Coronation Street actor Michelle Keegan and The Only Way is Essex’s Mark Wright, are greeting them at Paris after the special British Airways flight from Manchester.
The trip marks the first time BA and Disneyland Paris have run their annual charity day from Manchester.
Julian Carr, Manchester airport’s aviation director, said: “We are delighted to see British Airways undertake its first Christmas charter flight from Manchester Airport, for such a worthwhile cause.
“The arena attack touched so many people back in May and everyone at Manchester Airport hopes the families have an incredible day at Disneyland Paris.”
The trip is part of BA’s celebrations to mark the airline reaching a landmark £17 million raised for Flying Start, its global charity partnership with Comic Relief since 2010. The money raised has helped Comic Relief fund projects globally, including the Youth Factory Zone in Manchester, which sent 10 youngsters on the trip.
Mary Barry, BA’s community investment manager, said: “We wanted to give some of the families a Christmas day out, to have fun and meet some of our celebrity ambassadors. We are very grateful to Disney for agreeing to work with us once again and to all the celebrities for giving their time to come with us.”
