The captain of Jet2.com’s inaugural flight from Gran Canaria to Leeds/Bradford; and the Spanish airport’s Director, Alberto Martín, cut the inaugural cake.
- Jet2.com added a total of 11 new routes to its offering across six British airports in the course of last week. Glasgow (GLA) was the largest beneficiary with four new destinations launched between 23 and 25 May. East Midlands (EMA), which saw increased interest from Jet2.com following the demise of bmibaby, welcomed two routes from the UK carrier. All services are offered with low frequencies and the majority faces competition from other UK leisure and low-cost carriers.
