Jet2.com and Jet2holidays have announced the launch of their 15th airport in Greece, with brand-new flights and holidays to the island of Samos going on sale for Summer 26.

The leading leisure airline and UK’s largest tour operator will operate to Samos from two UK airport bases – Manchester and London Stansted Airports – with both routes being exclusive to the companies.

The brand-new flying programme includes up to two weekly flights from Manchester Airport to Samos between 5th May and 30th October 2026, as well as up to two weekly services from London Stansted Airport between 7th May and 29th October 2026. This gives customers plenty of choice and flexibility when it comes to enjoying an authentic slice of Greece in early, peak or late summer.

The addition of Samos Airport means that Jet2.com and Jet2holidays will operate to a total of 15 airports across Greece in Summer 26 and comes on the back of continued demand from UK holidaymakers looking for some Greek sunshine. As a result, the companies will operate to more Greek airports from the UK than any other carrier.

As well as going on sale with flights to Samos, Jet2holidays has also launched a range of new hotels located across the laid-back island. Over 30 3-5 star hotels are available to book now in six sun-kissed resorts – Samos Town, Kampos, Kokkari, Pythagorion, Karlovasi and Balos.

The beautiful Greek island of Samos lies just off the coast of Turkey and is bursting with charm, from its golden-grained beaches to its lush green hills. Holidaymakers can spend their days lounging by the glittering Aegean Sea, hiking through ancient ruins or enjoying delicious Greek fare at a cosy taverna. Between the charming town of Pythagorion or the peaceful village of Kokkari, there is always something to explore, with public transport links making it easy to access the variety of resorts and beaches. With stunning sunsets and a laid-back vibe, Samos is the ultimate place to relax, unwind and soak up the tranquillity of Greece.

The launch gives customers the opportunity to enjoy award-winning flights and holidays to Samos for the first time with the airline and tour operator. They can choose from a flight-only booking with Jet2.com, or a package holiday with Jet2holidays while enjoying the companies’ award-winning customer service which has seen both brands be named Travel Brand of the Year at the Which? Awards and Which? Recommended Providers.

ATOL-protected package holidays with Jet2holidays include VIP customer service and return transfers, along with a generous 22kg baggage allowance and friendly flight times with Jet2.com, all for a low £60 per person deposit.

When flying with Jet2.com, customers receive that very same industry leading customer service, a 10kg hand luggage allowance, great flight times and friendly low fares.

As a result of this expansion, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays now have 15 Greek airports on sale for Summer 26, including Athens (operating all-year round), Corfu, Chania (Crete), Heraklion (Crete), Kefalonia, Halkidiki, Kos, Kalamata, Lesvos, Preveza, Rhodes, Skiathos, Santorini and Zante. With a total of 24 destinations on sale across Greece, customers and independent travel agents have fantastic choice, whether it is a Greek city break or a beach holiday.
