Jet2.com and Jet2holidays announces Winter Sun Wonderland from Birmingham Airport

Jet2.com and Jet2holidays has announced its biggest ever Winter Sun programme for Winter 19/20 from Birmingham Airport with demand for sunshine during the long British winter fuelling another year of growth for the leading leisure airline and package holiday specialist.

With over HALF A MILLION seats on sale to 13 sunshine destinations next winter, this represents a capacity increase of 29% – over 130,000 extra seats when compared with this winter. This biggest ever winter sun programme includes more seats to popular favourites such as the Canary Islands and Mainland Spain

Another driver of this expanded programme is the increasing popularity of destinations that may previously have been viewed as summer sun hotspots, such as Turkey and Cyprus. With more holidaymakers looking to enjoy the Turkish sunshine during Winter, the leading leisure airline and package holiday specialist has expanded its Antalya programme by almost 50%, with over 20,000 seats on sale.

The company’s Cyprus programme has also expanded significantly next winter, with over 30,000 seats on sale to Paphos and Larnaca, representing capacity growth of almost 50%.

Key highlights on the company’s Winter Sun programme for 19/20 from Birmingham Airport include:

  • Winter Turkish Delight! Over 20,000 seats on sale to Antalya means a capacity increase of almost 50% – driven by extra services and longer season. Up to three weekly services departing to the Turkish sunshine next winter
  • Cyp-rush: Longer season and to three weekly services to Paphos, as well as first winter services to Larnaca with up to two flights per week
