Jet2.com has announced additional flights to Bourgas in Bulgaria for summer next year, with Saturday services now taking off from Manchester and Leeds Bradford Airport.

This expansion means that from May, the company will operate up to 14 services a week to Bourgas from across its nine UK bases, meaning over 100,000 seats on sale in its first year of operation.

The two additional services will both operate on Saturdays, ideal for families travelling on holiday, meaning the following schedule:

• Leeds Bradford Airport – beginning July 6th there will be two weekly services (Wednesday and Saturday).
• Manchester Airport – beginning July 6th there will be three weekly services (Monday, Thursday and Saturday).

A new destination for summer 2019, Bourgas, offers great value for money as well as miles of golden sands along the Black Sea.

Steve Heapy, chief executive of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “We are very excited about the additional flights to Bourgas in Bulgaria from Manchester and Leeds Bradford Airport.

“This is the first year we will operate to Bulgaria and we are delighted with how popular it has been as a destination among Britons.

“The flights connect even more holidaymakers to the sun-soaked resorts of Sunny Beach and Obzor, as well as many other popular spots in Bulgaria, and we expect the popularity of this holiday destination to continue to grow.”
