Jet2holidays’ is once again concentrating on Spain for its summer 2027 offerings. Holidays to the Canary Islands, the Balearic Islands and others have already been put on sale.
Plans for next summer also include new package holidays to the Costa de Almería, the lesser-known island of La Palma in the Canaries, and the Costa Dorada, in addition to increased offerings to established destinations like Málaga and Girona.
The company is also extending its travel season so that people can travel more in the shoulder months too.
EasyJet holidays will also be offering more packages in 2027 with a total of 65 beach and city destinations in Spain.
These includes destinations in the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, the Costa Blanca, the Costa del Sol, the Costa Dorada, the Costa Brava, the Costa de Almería, and major cities.
The programme launched for next summer specifically highlights the Costa Blanca, Barcelona, and Lanzarote as major destinations.
The airline is also expanding its flight routes. New connections planned for 2027 including Girona from Gatwick and Liverpool, Murcia from Liverpool, and Bilbao from Edinburgh, as well as new routes to Barcelona and Palma from Aberdeen.
Girona to Liverpool launches on March 28th 2027, with twice-weekly flights on Wednesdays and Sundays and an offer of around 9,000 seats.
Girona to London-Gatwick will begin on June 3rd, 2027 with three flights a week, on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Sundays. This service is expected to carry some 8,000 seats in its first year.
The airline will also connect Murcia to Liverpool for the first time on March 29th next year. It will fly to the northern English city twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays.
This all comes amid continuing anti-tourism protests in Spain and calls for limitations on numbers in certain areas.
While these operators are obviously focusing on the most popular areas, the good news is that some of these new routes and packages are to lesser-visited areas such as Murcia, the Basque Country, Galicia and Almería.
