The first winter season will run from November 18, 2024 until March 29, 2025. Peak winter periods will see over 20 weekly flights departing from Liverpool John Lennon Airport.
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “Since launching Summer 24 flights and holidays from Liverpool John Lennon Airport last week, we have seen a fantastic reaction from customers and independent travel agents, and we are delighted at the response. On the back of that, we are very pleased to be putting our first ever Winter Sun programme for Winter 24/25 on sale too. The early release of the programme gives holidaymakers in Merseyside and the surrounding region the opportunity to book their Winter Sun holiday in advance and get the best choice of dates, rooms and resorts, as well as spread the cost.”
He added: “In addition to giving customers the chance to book their winter sunshine nice and early, the size and scale of our programme means we are offering fantastic choice and flexibility. For this reason, we are confident that our first ever Winter Sun programme from Liverpool John Lennon Airport will prove extremely popular as people look to escape the cold and gloom of the UK in winter and chase the sunshine.”
Paul Winfield, Director of Aviation Development at Liverpool John Lennon Airport added: “The reaction to the Jet2.com and Jet2holidays establishment of its Liverpool base has been extremely positive from across the North West and North Wales. Passengers have long awaited the availability of the Jet2.com product from Liverpool and passengers will now be able to book their favourite leisure destinations from their favourite airport. The Winter 24/25 programme is further good news for passengers across the North West looking for Winter sun from their Faster Easier Friendlier Airport.
“We expect these eight destinations will be equally as popular with the region’s holidaymakers and independent travel agents as the 20 destinations announced last week that feature in their Summer 2024 programme.”
Tickets for the winter season are on sale now.
