A SUPER grandma bagged cheap flights to take her granddaughter to Lapland for a wonderful overnight trip to meet Santa Claus.
Siobhan Cucina, 55, wanted to surprise lucky Grace for her 14th birthday, spending £130 on return travel to Finland.
She managed to stun her with the tickets and they caught a flight from Stansted airport at 6.30am on November 19.
Due to the two-hour time difference, they landed at Rovaniemi airport at 11.50am local time.
Siobhan and Grace then spent a fun day in Lapland, walking around Santa Claus Village and even going on a reindeer sledge ride.
