Jet2.com and Jet2holidays have launched a brand new route for summer 2022 to Santorini from Edinburgh Airport, with weekly Thursday services from May to October.

The companies are also offering flights and holidays to many destinations across the Mediterranean, including Greece.

The companies have also announced inaugural flights to Skiathos from Edinburgh, and their first flight to Izmir and Preveza this month.
