New routes launching soon from the UK
EasyJet isn't the only airline launching new flights from small UK airports
Sun Express will start flying from Newcastle to Turkey from next summer, taking holidaymakers to Dalaman.
The airline will start a twice weekly flight from May 4, 2025. There will also be additional flights to Antalya.
It's not the only airport in the north east in line for new routes either, with Teesside Airport promised new flights to both Tenerife and Malaga.
As part of his re-election campaign, Tees Valley Mayor, Ben Houchen, promised to deliver the new flights.
He said he hoped to bring some of them in for next summer, if not the year after.
Ryanair is also set to add new routes to Norwich Airport, just months after it started flying from there for the first time.
After launching its first flights there in April this year, to Alicante in Spain, Faro in Portugal and Malta, more destinations look set to be included.
The airport's managing director Richard Pace said he is hoping to see at least two or three more routes in time for summer 2025.
