The announcement ensures a continuity of flights and holidays to the region for customers of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, and comes as a result of the company working closely with both airports as well as the Murcia Regional Government. The company’s operation to San Javier will operate as normal throughout Summer 18.
From March/April 2019, flights will operate to Corvera Airport from Leeds Bradford and Manchester Airports, meaning that Jet2.com and Jet2holidays customers at both bases will continue to have access to award-winning flights and package holidays to Murcia.
Located on the Spanish coast, Murcia is the perfect destination for sport, sightseeing, seafood and sunshine. Customers can visit a range of stunning places from the relaxing Costa Calida (the warm coast) to Mar Menor and Murcia City. Corvera Airport is located just 19 kilometres from Murcia City and 28 kilometres from the Costa Calida coast, and brand new road links to the A30 motorway network ensure a swift transfer to the holiday resorts in the region.
On top of that, the friendly Jet2.com and Jet2holidays team will be present at the Corvera Airport to deliver its famous VIP customer service.
Flights from Leeds Bradford will start operating to Corvera from March 29th 2019, with three weekly services (Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) operating until 25th October 2019.
Flights from Manchester will start operating to Corvera from April 1st 2019, with three weekly services (Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) also operating until 25th October 2019.
This means that the company has more than 55,000 seats on sale to and from Corvera Airport. The services complement Jet2.com and Jet2holidays’ popular Alicante operation, which the company operates from all nine of its UK bases.
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “We are very impressed with the facilities at Corvera Airport, and we have been working hard to ensure that customers receive the same friendly welcome and VIP customer experience that Jet2.com and Jet2holidays is famous for. In the meantime our Summer 18 operation to San Javier will continue as normal.”
Manuel Fernando-Delgado, Managing Director of Tourism – Murcia Region, said: “We are very excited about Jet2.com and Jet2holidays choosing to operate at our new airport in Summer 19. It is truly rewarding to see a prestigious company such as Jet2.com and Jet2holidays being impressed with our airport facilities, which shall drive tourism growth and enhance connectivity in Costa Cálida.”
