Jet2 (Jet2.com) (Leeds/Bradford) yesterday (December 6) announced a series of major investments in the North East, demonstrating its commitment to Newcastle Airport and surrounding areas and ultimately positioning the airline to be the city’s most high profile over the coming year.

Jet2 announced the launch of four new routes from Newcastle to Bodrum (June 4), Rome (May 31), Reus (June 1) and Venice (May 31). This brings the total number of destinations served by Jet2 at Newcastle to 27.

An additional aircraft will be based at NCL for the summer 2012 season, taking the total to six based aircraft.
