"[This means] we’re now offering over 41 new routes including three brand new destinations on our network from this winter.

“By continuing to strengthen our network we’re providing even more choice and connectivity for our customers all across the UK, whether they’re chasing the winter sun, planning a magical winter getaway or hitting the slopes and we look forward to welcoming them on board.”

This includes routes to more than 40 destinations departing from 22 airports across the UK.
