Bristol Airport: new flights to autumn sunshine as restrictions continue to ease

Two new flights have been announced at Bristol Airport as travel restrictions continue to ease.

The two new destinations, which have lots of sun to be enjoyed as temperatures continue to drop in the UK, will be available this week if you fancy a last-minute holiday.

Following the easing of international travel restrictions and the removal of Turkey from the Red List, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays have been quick to launch flights and holidays to Antalya and Dalaman for some Turkish sunshine.

Holidaymakers will be able to catch a flight to Turkey from the airport in the Mendip Hills, from Friday (September 24) and regular flights will also begin this week.

On the back of last week’s travel update, Jet2holidays reported an increase in bookings of more than 1,000 per cent to Turkey as holidaymakers flocked to book holidays to the popular hotspot once again.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: "The launch of our award-winning flights and package holidays to Turkey from Bristol Airport is fantastic news for holidaymakers.

"We are delighted to be starting flights and holidays to Antalya and Dalaman and to be taking customers in the region to these much-loved destinations.

"Customers have missed being able to visit Turkey this summer, so the reopening of the country has resulted in huge demand and comes just in time for holidaymakers to enjoy some late summer sun.

"We continue to look towards the future with real confidence, as customers make the most of being able to get away and enjoy some much-needed sunshine."
