Jet2 to offer more flights to Greece next summer
Jet 2 has launched four new routes to the Greek islands from Newcastle and East Midlands airports for summer 2021.
The company will offer flights and packages to Kefalonia, Santorini and Skiathos from Newcastle. It will also offer flights and packages to Skiathos from East Midlands Airport.
Jet2 said the move, which will put almost 30,000 extra seats on sale to Greek islands, was in response to strong demand for holidays to Greece next summer.
Last week Jet2 announced it was launching flights and holidays from Bristol for the first time next summer.
CEO Steve Heapy said: "Demand from customers and independent travel agents in both regions is telling us that flights and holidays to Greece are very much in demand for summer 21. As ever, we are responding quickly to that demand to give customers even more choice from Newcastle and East Midlands airports."
