Best known for hosting the Winter Olympics in 1988 and for an exuberant festival called The Stampede, flights to Calgary can get really booked up during the summer months. It is best to book your flights to Calgary way in advance through CheapTickets.ch to avoid any disappointment.
Covering the largest area of any city in this part of Canada, Calgary is situated between the foothills of the Rockies and the Prairies. You can get direct flights to Calgary from Switzerland and once you have disembarked from your flights Calgary is only 10 miles away.
The modern skyscrapers and interesting galleries belie the fact that Calgary is a frontier town at heart where cowboy boots and checked shirts are part of the norm. It is also close to Banff National Park where 25 peaks rise above turquoise lakes and there are numerous species of wildlife.
Calgary is situated on the Bow River in Alberta, Canada and has a population of just over 1.1 million. Known as ‘The Stampede City’ Calgary was the first ever Canadian city to host the Olympic Games and has a strong sporting history.
The climate in Calgary is quite dry and humid during the summer months and winters tend to be long and cold, so do make sure to plan your packing carefully before departure.
Since the 1980’s Calgary has changed dramatically, once a city that used to rely heavily on oil and gas for it’s economy, it is now a very different city. Calgary is now very diverse in both it’s culture and it’s outlook for the future.
When in Calgary we would recommend checking out some of these well known tourist attractions:
Hop on some flights to Calgary and discover the delights of the Calgary Chinese Cultural Center, linger a moment in the Devonian Gardens, and gaze in awe at the view from the top of Calgary Tower. If you happen to book summer flights Calgary has the Calgary Stampede to entertain you. This 10-day festival is about all things western, from rodeo dramas to bull riding and calf roping, plus parades and chuck-wagon racing.
For something equally as thrilling, how about a visit to the Canada Olympic Park where you can ride on a bobsled or luge and pretend you won gold at the end of the run. Then there is St George’s Island which houses the Botanical Gardens, Calgary Zoo, and Prehistoric Park, where you can lunch among more than 20 life-sized dinosaurs.
If Canada is calling, then part of that trip has to include flights to Calgary.
