A major airline has revealed two new destinations on its city break range from Glasgow Airport.
Jet2CityBreaks has announced it has expanded its Discover More collection to Marrakech and Krakow for the first time.
The airline says the expansion comes following "strong demand" from customers looking for more "discovery-based experiences".
As part of the holidays, the travel firm says the Discover More getaways to Marrakech in Morocco include a tour of the historic city, while the trips to Krakow in Poland include an Auschwitz tour.
Jet2 says the packages to Marrakech will provide holidaymakers the chance to experience the city's top spots in one day.
As part of the holiday, customers will be able to see the mesmerising Bahia Palace, Saadian Tombs and Koutoubia Mosque gardens, before making their way to the famous Jemaa el-Fna square.
Travellers will then be treated to lunch in a traditional Moroccan restaurant, followed by having free time to explore the city.
Jet2CityBreaks will start operating breaks to Marrakech for both Winter 2024 and 2025 and Summer 2025 from October 4, 2024, from four UK airports -Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester and London Stansted.
Here is the full flying programme:
