Jet2 adds Mykonos for 2020
Jet2.com and Jet2holidays will add flights and packages to the Greek island of Mykonos from both London Stansted and Manchester airports next summer.
The decision means that the operator will offer 13 destinations in Greece in 2020, five of them new for next year.
It will operate up to two flight a week to Mykonos from Manchester and Stansted from May 24 to November 1.
At the same time, CEO Steve Heapy has announced bold plans to increase Jetsholidays’ ATOL to allow it to carry up to 700,000 more passengers over the next year. It is currently licensed to carry 3.9 million but wants to increase this to up to 4.6 million, said Heapy at the operator’s annual conference this week.
