easyJet has announced brand new destinations flying from Edinburgh in time for this year's summer holidays, with a trip to Turkey potentially costing under £40 for the people of the capital.
A number of flights and package holidays have been added to the easyJet website, as the airline confirmed that more than 200,000 extra seats were put on sale on Tuesday (January 17).
The new destinations include Greek islands Santorini and Chania, Corsica and Lisbon, as well as Antalya and Izmir in Turkey. Edinburgh has now had flights to Santorini and Antalya added to their long list of destinations flying directly to and from the capital.
