Overview
- Jet2 has started flying to Palermo from Manchester and will add seasonal services from Birmingham and Newcastle under its summer 2026 program.
- The airline schedules twice-weekly Manchester flights on Tuesdays and Fridays through November 3, with weekly Wednesday departures from Birmingham until October 28 and weekly Tuesday services from Newcastle until November 3.
- Jet2 says the Palermo routes are exclusive to the carrier, expanding its Italy network to nine airports, including two in Sicily.
- For summer 2026, the company has 12 weekly flights to Sicily on sale, giving UK travelers more options to reach the island’s north-west coast.
- Jet2 reiterates it will not add surcharges to existing bookings despite jet fuel price increases linked in reports to the Iran conflict.
