Jet2 adds another Tel Aviv service

BUDGET airline Jet2.com is to add an extra weekly flight from Manchester to Tel Aviv, Israel.

Jet2 currently operates two flights a week but will add a third from July 2011 until September.

The Leeds-based operator said it had added the service to meet “overwhelming customer demand for the destination”.

Chief executive Philip Meeson said: “We’re obviously delighted with the success of our Tel Aviv flights and thrilled with the great feedback that’s been received since we started the route in May last year.

“Because of this response, we’re happy to announce that we’re extending our Tel Aviv service to three times a week for the busy summer months giving our passengers more choice and flexibility when they travel.”
