A POPULAR budget airline has announced a new route from a Scottish airport to a sun-soaked Mediterranean island.
Jet2 is to launch flights from Glasgow Airport to the Greek island of Kos following increased demand.
The airline will run new weekly Tuesday services to the destination from May 26 to October 20, 2026.
Jet2 said: "Part of the showstopping Dodecanese Islands, Kos has long been a favourite for sunshine holidays.
"Holidaymakers can choose from lively party towns, laid-back seaside resorts and traditional fishing villages, all of them boasting beautiful beaches and dishing up heavenly traditional cuisine.
"With its rich culture and history of the capital, Kos Town, Kos is an island where centuries-old relics neighbour vibrant bars and buzzy promenades meet."
Matt Hazelwood, chief commercial officer at AGS Airports, added: "We are delighted to see Jet2.com announce its sixth Greek destination from Glasgow to the sun-soaked island of Kos next summer.
"Expanded flight options to Greece have been sought after by Glasgow passengers for some time and the market dynamics clearly show the increasing trend of people in West Scotland searching for travel to this part of Europe.
"We are delighted to see Jet2.com respond to this demand with an expanded Greek programme for Summer 2026.
"Glasgow Airport looks forward to welcoming even more Greek-bound passengers from the city and the wider West Scotland region travelling from their local airport next year."
