Jet2 has launched new flight and holiday offers from Leeds Bradford Airport - just days after easyJet announced its withdrawal.
On Wednesday, easyJet, which offers a small number of weekly flights from the Yeadon-based airport, announced that it will cancel flights to and from the airport from January 5, 2027.

Capitalising on this increased demand for flights and holidays, Jet2 has moved swiftly to respond by launching dedicated offers for customers and independent travel agents, in a move that further underlines the company’s long-standing commitment to the airport.
“We have been proudly operating from Leeds Bradford Airport since 2003, when we launched with just two aircraft, and since then we have grown to become Yorkshire’s leading airline and tour operator,” said Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.
“Our longstanding commitment to the region has never been stronger and we want to say thank you to our loyal customers and independent travel agent partners by launching these brand-new offers today.”
Jet2 is giving customers £100 off all holiday bookings through the code YORKSHIRE100 and 10 per cent off flights through the code YORKSHIRE10.
This gives customers the chance to book their travel plans for less from their local airport, as Jet2 continues to see demand from customers flying from Leeds Bradford.
It also further demonstrates Jet2’s longstanding commitment to LBA and the wider Yorkshire region.
The leading operator first started operating from Leeds Bradford Airport in 2003 with two aircraft and has grown significantly since then to become Yorkshire’s leading airline and tour operator, employing thousands of people across the region.
“Customers deserve the best experience and choice when it comes to their well-deserved holidays and that is what we look forward to continuing to provide from Leeds Bradford for many years to come,” Mr Heapy added.
“Whether it’s a sunshine getaway, a ski trip or city break escape, this offer makes booking that holiday even easier and we know our loyal customers will be delighted.”
Jet2 is currently operating its biggest ever programme from Leeds Bradford Airport, with 65 destinations on sale and next year the company will launch six new destinations in response to continued demand - Egypt (Hurghada & Sharm el Sheikh), Tunisia, Preveza, Santorini and Tivat (Montenegro) – and in Summer 27 the company will operate 15 based aircraft at the airport.
This demonstrates Jet2’s continued investment at the airport in response to its confidence in the strength of demand from customers and independent travel agents across Yorkshire.
