Now that the planes are flying again, following the volcanic
ash disruption, Skyscanner takes a look at the most appropriate places
to fly mom off to this Mothers’ Day (9 May).
Mombasa – with the word mom in its name, we can’t think of anywhere better to take
your dear mama than this exotic Kenyan destination! Famed for its incredible
wildlife, beautiful beaches and intriguing culture, there is something for everyone
here.
Sierra Madre, California - Literally meaning "mother mountain range" in Spanish,
this pretty little community outside of Los Angeles has the same gorgeous weather as
its larger neighbor and is, of course, near the mountains that share its name.
Stockholm – Mamma Mia, here we go again! Fly mom to the home of Abba, the group
responsible for that infamously catchy chart topping hit which was to provide the
inspiration for the west end musical and, more recently, the cinematic hit of the
same name. Help her rediscover her inner disco-diva while scoping out the Stockholm
Music Museum. And with so many bargain flights to Europe available, getting there is simple!
Mamaroneck, New York - Mamma will love the town of Mamaroneck: not only for its
fitting name, but also for its fascinating history (while Dad may enjoy the
championship golf course here). Just a short ride into New York, Mamaroneck was
home to Matt Dillon as he grew up – but don’t worry, you don’t need a movie star’s
bank balance to fly your mum here as there are loads of New
York flight deals to choose from.
Macedonia – Find yourself a cheap
airfare to Europe and head to Skopje, Macedonia's largest city, capital, and
birthplace of one of the world’s most cherished moms: Mother Theresa. Get inspired
by visiting the monument dedicated to her memory.
