Jet2.com expands Christmas flight schedule from Cologne/Bonn

Leeds Bradford new to the programme – four destinations in the UK

Cologne Bonn Airport welcomes Jet2.com back again this winter: the leading UK leisure airline has been flying to Cologne/Bonn during the Christmas season since 2019 and is further expanding its services this year. New to the flight schedule is the route to Leeds Bradford, which will be served every Friday and Monday at 2 p.m. starting immediately. The flight time is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.

‘We are delighted that Jet2.com is expanding its seasonal offering from Cologne/Bonn and adding flights to Leeds Bradford for the first time,’ says Thilo Schmid, Chairman of the Management Board of Flughafen Köln/Bonn GmbH. ‘This further expands our flight schedule to the United Kingdom and offers both festive travellers and guests from England an attractive additional connection.’

In addition to the new route to Leeds Bradford, Jet2.com is once again offering flights to Manchester, Birmingham and Newcastle this year. This means that there are a total of four destinations in England to choose from. The aircraft operated belong to the Boeing 737 family, with a new Airbus A321neo planned to be used on a number of flights from Manchester. Tickets for all Jet2.com flights can be booked through www.jet2.com, and Jet2City Breaks can be booked through independent travel agents or via www.jet2holidays.com/city-breaks.

Leeds, a vibrant metropolis in the heart of West Yorkshire, combines historic architecture with a dynamic cultural scene and offers excellent connections to northern England and the Yorkshire Dales. This creative city is characterised by a broad cultural spectrum – from music festivals and street art to striking historic buildings such as the listed Kirkgate Market.

Birmingham, Manchester and Newcastle are among the country's most important urban centres and are best known for their music, culture and sports offerings, as well as their diverse shopping opportunities.

Jet2.com flight schedule for winter 2025/26 from Cologne/Bonn:

  • Birmingham up to 4 times a week
  • Leeds Bradford 2 times a week
  • Newcastle 2 times a week
  • Manchester up to 5 times a week
