The airline and operator, the UK’s largest Atol holder, has put extra flights and holidays on sale to destinations including mainland Spain and its islands, the Algarve, Greece’s islands, Bulgaria and Italy.


Leeds-based Jet2 will fly more than 1.9 million seats from Leeds Bradford in total next summer, operating to 49 destinations. Chief executive Steve Heapy said the expansion underlined Jet2’s commitment to LBA. 


Heapy said demand from customers and agents in Yorkshire had "remained strong" since it put summer 2025 on sale, adding the growth at the Yorkshire airport would provide "more choice and more sunshine".
