The additional services come in response to an uptick in demand from consumers for late sun breaks, with the airline and operator adding more than 11,000 extra seats to the destinations from Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, East Midlands, Leeds Bradford, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle and Stansted from 3-9 November 2024.

Steve Heapy, chief executive of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said there continued to be "enormous" demand for summer 2024 from British holidaymakers.

"As always, we listen to what customers are saying and react accordingly, so that we can provide them with the holiday choices that they want," he added.

Heapy continued: "Extending the season to these two popular Greek destinations means we are doing exactly that; giving customers more opportunity to get away and enjoy a much-needed holiday later in the season."

The additions come after wildfires swept across Rhodes last month. TTG’s Gary Noakes visited the island to meet some of the hoteliers who have played a key role restarting tourism to the destination.
