Hold onto your sun hats, because Jet2.com and Jet2holidays are cranking up the sunshine dial for Summer 2025. Whether you’re dreaming of Greece’s azure waters or Turkey’s stunning coast, Jet2’s got your summer plans sorted, and they’re making sure you have more chances to escape the unpredictable UK weather.

More Flights, More Tan Lines

Jet2 isn’t just offering a couple of extra flights; they’re basically doing a holiday overhaul. Expanding services to Antalya, Kos, Rhodes, and Crete (Heraklion) means your summer just got a serious upgrade. And, because they’re all about fairness, Jet2’s showing some love to airports beyond London too—Glasgow, Manchester, and Newcastle, here’s your golden ticket to the Med:

  • Glasgow Airport: Fancy a sunny Monday in Antalya? From May 26 to July 14, you can live the dream, with seven flights a week to kickstart your tan. Start packing your flip-flops, because you’re going to need them.
  • Manchester Airport: Jet2’s practically turning Manchester into a Mediterranean express. New Thursday flights to Antalya, Tuesday hops to Kos, and Friday escapes to Rhodes—more excuses to skip the office.
  • Newcastle Airport: Geordies deserve sun too, and Jet2’s delivering with extra flights to Antalya and a shiny new Sunday service to Crete. Weekends just went from meh to Mediterranean.

Greece: New Destinations, Same Gorgeous Views

Jet2’s not just sticking to the popular spots—they’re going off the beaten path. Say hello to Poros, Aegina, and Leros—Greek destinations so chic, you’ll be posting #humblebrag pics from places your friends can’t even pronounce.

Plus, with eight new routes from Bournemouth, Bristol, and London Luton, you’ll have no excuse not to take a trip. Whether you’re into beach lounging, ancient ruins, or just eating your body weight in feta, Jet2’s got you covered. And with over 125 new hotels to pick from, expect your holiday research to turn into a full-time job.

Jet2: Your Go-To Airline (Seriously, They’re the People’s Choice)

Jet2 isn’t just about getting you from A to B—it’s about making sure you actually enjoy the ride. Here’s what you get:

  • A 22kg baggage allowance, because who wants to leave their favourite beach hat behind?
  • Flight schedules that don’t suck, so you can enjoy a relaxing trip and not a sleepless night.
  • In-resort Customer Helpers to make sure your holiday goes off without a hitch. They’re like a personal genie but without the whole “three wishes” limitation.
  • And for families? Free Child Places. Yep, your kid’s seat is free (sort of), so you can use that saved cash on extra baklava.

Your Jet2 Summer 2025 Checklist

Whether you’re planning an early spring break, a sun-filled summer escape, or a cheeky late-season holiday, Jet2 has your back. The hardest part? Deciding: Greece or Turkey? Or why not both? With all the new routes and endless options, 2025 is shaping up to be the year of “Why not?”

JET2 SUMMER 2025 EXPANSION

So get practicing your “yassas” (Greek for hello) and “merhaba” (Turkish for hello)—your dream holiday is just one Jet2 flight away. Here’s to endless sunshine, feta cheese, and Turkish delight!

The first port of call is Hydra. A beautiful small island, yet so great in history that stands out among many others ! Elegance, tradition and majesty.

These are the three key -words that point out the beauty and significance of the island, that goes beyond what meets the eye. The cobblestone streets on the island, where donkeys are the primary mode of transportation, are lined with aristocratic mansions, forts, and churches steeped in history.

Hydra, the ancient Hydrea , is a long narrow island, with inhospitable shores, largely barren of vegetation and short of water. Everywhere mountainous, it rises to 590 m in Mt Klimaki. Most of its 2387 inhabitants are concentrated in its only town. There are no motor vehicles. Since its discovery as a location for film -making, the island has become a fashionable artists’ colony and retreat of intellectuals and has attracted also a less orthodox fringe.

Right after Poros, we will be visiting the island of Aegina, the land of legendary Achilles! Aegina, the island of pistachios, is the largest island of the Saronic Gulf and is the favourite holiday ‘refuge’ of the Athenians, as well as a preferred island of tourists.

Entering the port, one can enjoy the okra and pink shades of the traditional Greek houses, and the busy life of summer and winter.

The world famous temple of Aphaia (Athena) imposes at the top of a pine-covered hill in the northeastern part of Aegina. On a clear day, one can see the Temple of Poseidon at Sounion and the Acropolis of Athens from the site of Aphaia. These three temples form the ‘holy triangle’ of the ancient times. On the island there is also the church of Saint Nectarios, which is one of the largest in the Balkans and contains a silver urn with the relics of St. Nectarios, the patron saint of the island
