Jet2 is launching flights from Leeds/Bradford to Dusseldorf in what the carrier said will be the Yorkshire region’s first links to Germany.
The daily service will start on May 8 with one-way prices from £10 including tax. The fares are expected to rocket during the World Cup which starts in early June.
The launch of the service will be backed by a £685,000 joint advertising campaign in Germany by the airline and Yorkshire Tourist Board.
Jet2 chief executive Philip Meeson said: “There has been huge demand from business and leisure travellers for a scheduled service to Germany. Until now, it was the only major EU country that wasn’t accessible direct from Leeds Bradford.”
