Zakynthos, Greece.
Three Greek islands are among the destinations that UK leisure travel group Jet2 will offer from its new base at London Luton Airport in summer 2025. Jet2 runs leisure flights through Jet2.com and package holidays through its tour operator Jet2holidays.
According to a company announcement, the airline expanded in response to strong demand for its flights and package holidays from customers and independent travel agents across London, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and Hertfordshire in southern England.
“We are very excited to announce London Luton Airport as our 13th UK airport base today, further expanding our footprint and bringing our award-winning holidays and flights to even more customers,” said Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays.
Passengers planning to visit Greece in 2025 can fly to Heraklion on Crete and Zakynthos with a weekly flight on Wednesdays, and to Rhodes Island with a weekly flight on Saturdays.

In addition, three destinations, Girona, Madeira and Verona, are exclusive from the airport base.
