Byway x First Choice

First Choice and Byway join forces

First Choice and Byway have partnered up to provide First Choice customers with flight-free holidays.

Byway’s multi-stop trips by train, boat and bus allow First Choice customers to explore new destinations such as the UK and Corsica, as well as the opportunity to travel to their long-standing favourites such as Italy and Spain in a new way.

“For First Choice, it’s about helping people pick the trip they really want, and sometimes that means introducing our customers to something they might not have considered before. Our partnership with Byway means that customers can now travel flight-free by train or bus or boat, experiencing new ways to journey as well as new destinations.”

Byway’s role

When you opt for a flight-free First Choice x Byway holiday, we sort out all the travel and accommodation for you, in one ABTA-protected package.

That means it’s easy to swap planes for trains for a slower, lighter-impact way to travel. Byway holidays also include sustainable, locally-owned accommodation and take you off the beaten path, away from the tourist hotspots.

Travellers often want to make more sustainable holiday choices but don’t know where to start – with trips powered by Byway, flight-free travel just got a whole lot easier for First Choice customers.
