There are some latecomers who have not yet booked their summer holidays and are hoping for last minute deals, but there are also those who, having completed their summer travel planning with a few autumn weekends, are already looking towards the Christmas long weekends with opportunities for New Year's Eve . No, it's not too early. And easyJet has confirmed this by already expanding its offer with a 10% increase in available seats compared to the previous year. Let's see together which are the destinations for the Christmas 2025 and New Year's 2026 holidays to book today.

Reykjavik

Those who don't suffer from the cold and dream of a destination that screams "Christmas" in every corner must put Reykjavik on their travel wishlist. A true fairytale Christmas and a movie-like New Year's Eve with daily connections from Italy managed by the low-cost airline easyJet. The daily flights depart from Italy and more precisely from Milan Malpensa. Although the peak period for observing the Northern Lights is from February to the end of March, December and January also offer excellent opportunities to enjoy this natural spectacle.

If the weather isn't so generous, however, you can enjoy the wild nature, the city with Christmas markets, the frozen Tjörnin lake and the famous Blue Lagoon , where you can bathe surrounded by steam between the ice. New Year's Eve here? Legendary: an unrepeatable experience that conquers everyone.

Paris

The City of Light never disappoints, especially during the holidays. Paris , served by easyJet with over 1.2 million seats from Italy, including 600,000 from Milan Malpensa and Linate alone, shines brighter than ever between December and January.

Even though it is very cold, the romantic city enchants: some choose this destination to exchange promises of love and marriage proposals, others take advantage of the opportunity to experience the magic of Disneyland Park dressed up for the holidays, and others visit the Paris Christmas markets between Montmartre and Saint-Germain-des-Prés where the scent of vin chaud and Alsatian sweets fills the air.

A stroll along the illuminated Champs-Élysées is pure poetry, as is a ride on the Ferris wheel at the Place de la Concorde. New Year's Eve is a dream come true: you can toast under the Eiffel Tower , admire the fireworks from the Trocadéro or dine overlooking the Seine. Don't miss a visit to the Louvre, the Sainte-Chapelle and perhaps an evening at the theater or the Moulin Rouge.

Marrakesh

Those looking for heat could take advantage of the connections to Marrakech . The exotic city seduces with connections that easyJet offers from Italy at interesting prices, even during the holiday period. A Christmas and New Year's Eve outside the box, letting yourself be conquered by vibrant colors and intense spices.

Not to be missed? The Medina that welcomes you with its labyrinthine souks , full of carpets, lanterns and handicrafts, the Majorelle gardens , an oasis of blue and green that will leave you speechless, and the Bahia Palace. Equally interesting is the Koutoubia Mosque. Evenings in the historic riads light up with flavors and traditional music, especially during the New Year's Eve dinner. If you are looking for stronger emotions, go on an excursion among the dunes of the Agafay desert or climb towards the peaks of the Atlas for a day among Berber villages and breathtaking views.

Sharm El Sheikh

If your Christmas dream includes warm sunshine, turquoise seas and a dip among colourful fish, Sharm el-Sheikh is your winter paradise. EasyJet has significantly expanded its connections, with over 200,000 seats available to this pearl of the Red Sea : more than 120,000 from Milan Malpensa (+40%) and over 80,000 from Naples (+50%).

Sharm el-Sheikh is the ultimate seaside destination to visit in winter: between snorkeling in the crystal clear waters of Naama Bay , visiting the coral reef of the Ras Mohammed National Park and the many excursions organized by the resorts, you can enjoy a starry holiday at competitive prices. Among the trips not to be missed? Definitely the excursion to the Sinai desert where among golden dunes and starry skies you can experience the authentic magic of this land.

Seville

Without going too far from Italy for a weekend or a short getaway we recommend Seville , a city in Spain that conquers everyone with one of the most beautiful squares in the world. Well connected from Milan Malpensa thanks to easyJet, during the celebrations it dresses up with lights, markets and nativity scenes.

Include in your itinerary the majestic Cathedral with the tomb of Christopher Columbus, a visit to the Moorish masterpiece Real Alcázar and the climb to the Giralda . Tapas and flamenco will brighten up every evening and if you have more days, start from here for anon the road to discover Andalusia .

Tbilisi

One of the most intriguing destinations for Christmas 2025 and New Year's Eve reachable from Milan Malpensa even in winter is Tbilisi ; a brand new connection that easyJet chooses to launch right around the winter holidays.

Why choose it? It is less traveled, therefore far from overtourism, and has a very respectable historical center with colorful houses, wooden balconies, spas and Orthodox churches. Among the options for relaxation are the sulfur spas Abanotubani. Here the festivities are prolonged: Orthodox Christmas is celebrated and therefore there is more margin to be able to experience the atmosphere.

Bilbao

Among the destinations for Christmas 2025 and New Year's Eve there is also Bilbao : the city in the north of Spain enters for the first time in the winter network of the easyJet company which offers connections from Milan Malpensa. The refined destination mixes art, culture and gastronomy.

The star is the Guggenheim Museum , an architectural marvel overlooking the river, but the city's charm extends to the Casco Viejo, the old quarter full of shops, bars and an authentic atmosphere. Bilbao lights up with a thousand lights at Christmas, with markets and concerts. New Year's Eve is celebrated in style in Plaza Moyúa, with live music and parties that continue in the city's restaurants and bars. Don't miss a dinner of pintxos and a ride on the Artxanda funicular for a spectacular view.
