Jet2 announces four new Greece holiday destinations for summer 2021 getaways


Those hoping for some sun next year have been given a boost after Jet2 announced four Greek holiday destinations.

The popular airline is launching flights and holidays to Kefalonia, Santorini, Skiathos for summer 2021 after the country proved popular with holidaymakers.

Jet2, with the latest additions, now offer a total of 14 Greek holiday destinations from ten UK bases next summer including: Corfu, Chania (Crete), Kefalonia, Halkidiki, Heraklion (Crete), Kos, Kalamata, Lesvos, Mykonos, Preveza, Rhodes, Skiathos, Santorini and Zante.

The new flights will be to Kefalonia, Santorini and Skiathos from Newcastle Airport, and holidays to Skiathos will also be available from East Midlands Airport as well.

The airline also currently operates existing Greek flights out of Stansted Airport in Stansted Mountfitchet, Essex.

The announcement represents almost 30,000 additional seats on sale to Greece with weekly services on each new route expected to prove popular with customers looking to get some much-needed sunshine and escapism.

This expansion comes just one week after Jet2 launched flights and holidays from Bristol Airport, their tenth UK base.

The airline says that the launch of the new UK base, followed by this Greek expansion, ‘demonstrates our confidence and underlines our long-term strategy to become the UK’s leading leisure travel business’.
