Murray's same-day Lapland charter will depart Newquay airport on 21 December 2026 – the first time a day-return Lapland experience has operated from the Cornish airport.

The charter, part of The Lapland Experience by Murray Travel, will take passengers directly to Rovaniemi in Finland – the "official home" of Santa Claus – for a full day of festive activities before returning to Cornwall the same evening.

The itinerary includes husky sledding, a reindeer sleigh ride, snow sledging and a private meeting with Santa, alongside a hot buffet lunch and time in Santa Claus Village.
