Airline’s biggest ever winter programme from East Midlands Airport
Jet2.com has today announced its biggest ever winter programme from East Midlands Airport, with more than 175,000 seats available between 30th October 2016 and 25th March 2017.
The roll-out means that Jet2.com is offering 50,000 more seats for its winter 2016/17 season than in 2015/16. Th airline says the growth has been driven by the expansion of existing routes as well as the launch of new routes Grenoble and Salzburg.
Jet2.com has also added more seats to winter beach break destinations this year including the Canary Islands, Alicante and Faro.
Steve Heapy, CEO, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “This is by far our biggest winter programme to date. The number of people across the Midlands jetting away for some much-needed winter sunshine means we are seeing spectacular growth, and we now have over 130,000 winter sun seats to popular holiday hotspots such as Alicante, the Canary Islands and the Algarve.”
“It isn’t just the sunshine that is driving growth, as our ski and city break destinations are on the up too. As a result we are adding two brand new winter routes, Grenoble and Salzburg. When you combine these new routes with the success of our other winter destinations then it puts us in a very strong position to enjoy our most successful winter yet.”
