Jet2holidays Adds Symi and ‘Athens Coast’ to its Summer 2024 Program

UK tour operator Jet2holidays has added the Greek island of Symi and the Athenian Riviera (or “Athens Coast”) to its program for summer 2024.

According to a company announcement, the two Greek destinations were added to the program in direct response to the “enormous demand” from customers and independent travel agents looking to book a holiday to Greece.

“Adding the incredible Athens Coast and Symi demonstrates our continued commitment to this wonderful country and we know how popular both destinations will be,” Jet2.com and Jet2holidays CEO Steve Heapy said.

The addition of Athens Coast gives holidaymakers access to eight resorts across the sun-soaked region – Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, Lagonissi, Anavyssos, Sounio, Vravrona, Mati and Marathon.

Holidaymakers will be able to access the Athens Coast from three UK airports (Birmingham, Manchester and London Stansted), with flights operating into Athens with Jet2.com between May 2 and October 31. From Athens International Airport (AIA), Jet2holidays customers can enjoy a short transfer to reach the coast.

Symi, Jet2holidays’ second new Greek destination for summer 2024, is an island located just to the north of Rhodes in the south-east Aegean, part of the Dodecanese islands. The small island is known for its beaches, harbour at Symi Town and colourful, authentic Greek houses located on hillsides.

Customers can book their Summer 24 holidays to Symi from 11 UK airports, with flights departing for Rhodes from Belfast International, Birmingham, Bristol, East Midlands, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds Bradford, Liverpool John Lennon, London Stansted, Manchester and Newcastle International.

With holidays operating from April through to October, packages with Jet2holidays include Jet2.com flights to Rhodes International Airport from the UK and a ferry crossing of approximately 1.5 hours to Symi.

Jet2holidays now has a large choice of destinations on sale across Greece from the UK for summer 2024, with over 100 routes on sale to 14 Greek airports and 19 holiday regions to choose from.

Moreover, Jet2holidays also introduced city breaks to Porto, Portugal, for the first time and has added Pula, on the Istrian Coast in Croatia, to its summer 2025 program.
