Jet2 have announced two exciting new destinations for Jet2.com – New York and
Turkey Bodrum.
New York
Back after popular demand is the New York route from Leeds Bradford, however
Newcastle has also been added as a new addition. These flights are only flying
for two weeks in December as a “Christmas Shopping” route.
Flights from
Newcastle and Leeds-Bradford have a fantastic starting price of just £358.98
return or 3 night breaks including accommodation from £599.
Flights go from
Newcastle and Leeds-Bradford to New York’s Newark airport on the following
dates:
2nd December
returning 5th December 2010
9th December
returning 12th December 2010
Philip Meeson, boss
of Jet2.com said: “Nobody does Christmas quite like the Big Apple and I’m
sure that the people of the North East and Yorkshire will revel in the
opportunity to do their festive shopping in the most magical of winter
wonderlands. Whether its ice-skating at the Rockefeller Centre, bargain hunting
in Macy’s, or cocktail sipping in Greenwich Village, I’d urge New York
lovers to book their flights or holiday packages fast – places are going to go
quicker than you can say ‘Cosmopolitan’!”
Turkey
Bodrum
Jet2.com, has
launched its first ever service from Leeds-Bradford to the popular Turkish hot
spot of Bodrum, following an overwhelming demand from holiday makers for
destinations out of the pricey Euro-zone.
Flights for summer
2011 are on sale now from just £69.99 one way, including taxes, with departures
once a week from 20th June to 2nd October 2011. Alternatively package holidays
are available from Jet2holidays from £329 per person for 7 nights on a self
catering basis.
With Jet2.com’s
new route offering the only direct scheduled service to the Turkish peninsula
from Leeds-Bradford airport, demand is expected to be high and compliments the
airline’s twice weekly service to Dalaman which was launched earlier this
year.
Turkey is enjoying
a renaissance amongst British sun-seekers of late - its bustling bazaars,
turquoise coves and cheap alcohol proving a major attraction to tourists who
have been put off by price hikes on alcohol, eating out and tobacco in rival
holiday spots such as Spain, Italy and France.
Philip Meeson, boss
of Jet2.com, said: “It seems our customers have fallen in love with Turkey’s
beautiful beaches and low cost of living! Dalaman has proved to be one of
our most popular holiday destinations for 2010 and so we are delighted to be
adding to our Turkish offering with the launch of the Bodrum flight.
“We’ve
introduced this route following overwhelming demand from holiday makers in the
region, who want a regular and direct service to the Aegean coast and its
plethora of beautiful resorts. With some great flight times and our amazing 22kg
luggage allowance, I’m sure people in the region will be rushing to experience
some Turkish delight very soon!”
Meanwhile Steve
Heapy, boss of Jet2holidays.com added: “We are thrilled to add Bodrum to our
existing range of over 30 holiday destinations. With our extensive offering of 2
star self-catering to 5 * luxury all-inclusive accommodation, including
transfers and fantastic flight times, there really is something for everyone.
The launch of Bodrum from Leeds-Bradford, coincides with the release of our new
Jet2holidays brochure, which will be hitting shelves from next week and will
also be available to view online from 3rd June. I hope people all over Yorkshire
will pick up a copy at their local travel agent and see what we have to
offer!”
