Jet2 launching new Easter flights to Geneva from Leeds Bradford Airport

Jet2 will be launching more flights than ever before from Leeds Bradford airport heading to Geneva.

With the Swiss government now lifting the pre-arrival testing requirement, the airline has decided to respond to demand in order to get more skiers and snowboarders hitting the slopes.

Kicking off this weekend, Jet2 are restarting their programme, flying to Lyon, Chambery and Grenoble as well as to Innsbruck, Salzburg, Turin and Barcelona (Andorra).

But they're back with even more flights to Geneva, taking off from not just Leeds Bradford but from Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester and London Standsted.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “Skiers and snowboarders have missed out on the best part of two ski seasons over the past couple of years, so they are absolutely jumping at the opportunity to hit the slopes once again.

"All eight ski destinations that we have on sale this winter are looking extremely popular, and it is obvious that snow sports fans want to make the ski season last for as long as possible too.

"In response to that, we are expanding our Easter ski programme so that customers have even more choice when it comes to hitting the best slopes in Europe.

"With our ski flights restarting to France this weekend too, we are looking ahead to a very popular and successful ski season.”

Jet2 have just added new flights to Iceland for their winter programme.

Taking off from Manchester, the airline will offer twice-weekly services to Iceland, giving customers the chance to tick off the iconic Northern Lights or Blue Lagoon from their bucket list.
