Vueling has launched a four-day sale on selected routes from Barcelona, with headline fares starting at EUR 12 for travel between 2 February and 21 June 2026. The airline confirmed that prices are valid from 19 to 22 January and apply only to direct flights booked via its website or app. Taxes and admin fees are included, but extras such as bags and seat selection cost more.

The promotion includes a wide selection of European destinations along with several domestic links, though availability varies by route and travel date. The sale window is short, covering four days in January, while the travel period extends from February into June. Seat numbers are limited on each route, and prices can change once the lowest fare classes sell out. Vueling also states that the sale cannot be combined with other discounts and remains subject to seat availability at the time of purchase.

Sample routes and one-way sale fares

  • Faro — EUR 12.00
  • Birmingham — EUR 14.00
  • Manchester — EUR 14.00
  • Naples — EUR 14.99
  • Edinburgh — EUR 24.00
  • Geneva — EUR 16.00
  • Zurich — EUR 32.00
  • Munich — EUR 32.00
  • Tromsø — EUR 85.90
  • Reykjavík — EUR 161.99

With direct links covering the UK, Italy, Germany, France, the Balkans and the Nordics, the sale opens up a broad set of city options. Faro and Naples suit beach-and-food weekends, while Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh add culture and music. Short hops to Geneva, Zurich or Munich make mountain and lakeside trips easier, and routes like Tromsø and Reykjavík appeal to travellers chasing winter scenery and northern lights.

Timed ahead of spring planning, the offer gives anyone based in Barcelona a chance to lock in cheap city breaks well before peak prices kick in. The breadth of destinations is the standout: it mixes classic capitals with smaller regional cities that are often missed. As always with sale calendars, the best dates tend to disappear quickly, so checking multiple weekends and flying light can make a noticeable difference.
