All 30 New Jet2 Destinations From UK Airports For 2027
Recently, budget airline Ryanair axed routes and reduced capacity for a range of Greek airports, including Thessaloniki, Athens, Chania and Heraklion.
But Jet2 seems to have gone the other way. Earlier this year, the travel company said its success at its relatively new London Gatwick base has led it to expand, including a “brand-new and exclusive route to Lesvos (Mytilene)” from 2027.
They also said they were “delighted to be significantly expanding our Jersey programme for Summer 2027, with a great choice of flights now departing from six UK airports as a result”. This will include two new routes.
A spokesperson told HuffPost UK that overall, they’ll be offering 30 new routes starting in 2027.
“With 30 new routes and three brand new destinations, including Thassos, Hurghada and Sharm el Sheikh, on sale for Summer 2027, we are giving holidaymakers a fantastic choice and flexibility when it comes to locking some sunshine into the diary,” they said.

What about the jet fuel crisis?
This announcement comes as some airlines, such as Lufthansa and KLM, have reduced their flight schedules following rising jet fuel costs.
Others have continued running at full capacity but are considering introducing surcharges, or have already done so.
But Jet2 previously said they have “ruled out” surcharges.
A spokesperson told HuffPost UK: “As a consumer champion, we have restated our confidence in the supply of jet fuel this summer, meaning that customers can look forward to getting away on their well-deserved holidays with Jet2. We were the first airline and tour operator to announce that we will not introduce surcharges, meaning the price at which customers book with Jet2 is the price they will pay”.
They have also launched “37 new routes and three brand-new destinations in La Palma, Palermo and Samos” for 2026.
Simple Flying reported that Jet2′s profits from fiscal year 2024-2025 were 14.7% higher than the previous year’s.
