Jet2 launches exclusive routes to holiday spots with golden beaches and crystal-clear waters - save £100

To celebrate the announcement, Jet2 is offering a £100 per person discount on all Egypt holidays currently on sale. The programme will consist of 18 weekly flights and more than 4,000 seats available each week across both destinations.

The move means sun-seekers can now book getaways to Egypt's golden beaches and crystal-clear waters with the award-winning operator.

Flights to Hurghada will depart from Birmingham, East Midlands, Glasgow, Leeds Bradford, London Stansted and Manchester.

Sharm-El-Sheikh services will operate from different airports: Birmingham, East Midlands, Edinburgh, Leeds Bradford, London Stansted and Manchester.

Four of these routes are exclusive to Jet2. The Leeds Bradford to Hurghada and London Stansted to Hurghada connections won't be offered by other airlines, and the same goes for Edinburgh to Sharm-El-Sheikh and Leeds Bradford to Sharm-El-Sheikh.

Egypt's Red Sea coastline offers holidaymakers golden beaches perfect for snorkelling or simply lounging in the sunshine.

Hurghada, once a quiet fishing village, has transformed into a year-round resort with something for everyone - from building sandcastles to thrilling desert safaris. Visitors can explore the Old Town's bustling souks and enjoy fresh seafood straight from the boats.

Jet2holidays has put together a range of three to five-star hotels across Hurghada, Sahl Hasheesh, Makadi Bay and Soma Bay.

Over in Sharm-El-Sheikh, it's all about constant sunshine, stunning beaches and a lively nightlife. The resort sits on the Red Sea shores and is famous for its coral reefs, with options to explore the dramatic Sinai Desert or hike Mount Sinai.

CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, Steve Heapy, said: "We are absolutely thrilled to be giving customers even more choice thanks to the launch of Egypt as a brand-new destination.

"With year-round availability to the magical destinations of Hurghada and Sharm-El-Sheikh, we are giving holidaymakers fantastic choice in two iconic holiday hotspots, and we cannot wait to get started.

"We are incredibly excited about these new destinations, and we know how popular they will be with our customers, based on the demand out there. To celebrate our latest destination, we have also launched a special offer on all holidays to Egypt, so holidaymakers can get away for less."
