Jet2.com and Jet2holidays are continuing their growth at Leeds Bradford Airport with the launch today of THREE brand new destinations for summer 2015, Antalya (Turkey), Malta and the Greek Island of Kefalonia – the first ever service for the region.
Over 35,000 seats will be available to this trio of sizzling sunshine hotspots next year. In total 1.3 million seats will be available for summer 2015 with local holidaymakers being able to take their pick from 48 in demand destinations.
Twice weekly Jet2.com flights to Antalya and weekly flights to both Kefalonia and Malta, all beginning next May, are on sale today from £75 per person, including taxes. Jet2holidays ATOL protected package breaks are available from £379, secured for only a £60 deposit.
This further growth comes on the back of another successful year for the leading leisure airline and package holiday specialist at Leeds Bradford Airport, with the businesses taking more than 1.5 million people to and from top European destinations during 2013/14.
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “Leeds is our heartland so we are always striving to bring our local passengers the very best choice of holiday options direct from their local airport. I don’t think they will be disappointed with this latest trio of top European gems. Malta continues to grow in popularity and the addition of Antalya and Kefalonia means we now have three Turkish destinations and six Greek Islands for local people to take their pick from.
“With our fantastic range, coupled with great flight times and award winning customer service, we are confident we have the right mix to continue our growth in the region, cementing our position as the top leisure operator at Leeds Bradford Airport.”
Tony Hallwood, Aviation Development & Marketing Director at Leeds Bradford Airport, said: “We are delighted that Jet2.com are continuing to expand their destination choice from Leeds Bradford Airport, with new services to Kefalonia, Malta and Antalya for summer 2015.
“We expect that these new routes to Greece, Turkey and Malta will be popular options for Yorkshire jetsetters wishing to fly independently or for holidaymakers who want the convenience of a package holiday from LBA.”
