2 min read

Jet2 has responded to the demand for all types of winter holiday by adding a massive 34 brand-new routes for Winter 26/27, including new flights to winter sun, city break, ski and Christmas market getaways. The new routes, alongside three new destinations and growth to existing destinations, means that 2026/27 represents Jet2’s biggest ever winter programme to go on sale.

The leading leisure airline and UK’s largest tour operator has unveiled the major expansion across its UK airport bases, with the new destinations and routes meeting customer and independent travel agent demand across the full range of winter getaways.

Jet2’s biggest ever winter programme includes the company’s first winter season from London Gatwick Airport. This gives holidaymakers right across the UK, including the south of England, even more choice when it comes to getting away whether they want sunshine, festive escapes, snow-sure ski trips or cultural city breaks.

In total, Jet2 has 6.3 million seats on sale to 42 destinations for Winter 26/27, which is over half a million more seats than Winter 25/26 and represents a capacity increase of 8.7%.

In addition to the new routes, Jet2 has expanded across many of its existing winter destinations, with more choice to customer favourites including Agadir, Cyprus, Malta and Porto too.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2, said: “We are seeing strong demand from customers and independent travel agents for all kinds of winter holidays, so we have responded by putting a fantastic selection of brand-new routes on sale for Winter 26/27. Whether holidaymakers want winter sun, a festive Christmas market break, a ski holiday to the Alps or a city break, this expanded programme gives them more choice and flexibility than ever before.”

He added: “The addition of 34 new winter routes, three new destinations and our first winter season from London Gatwick Airport shows how we are continuing to grow in direct response to demand. This is about giving customers more of what they want for winter, with an exciting mix of destinations that caters for every type of getaway.”
