After a number of positive travel updates, holidaymakers have even more to be excited about as Jet2.com and Jet2CityBreaks are restarting their exciting cities programme to a range of major city break destinations in Europe from next week (Monday 7th February). 

The leading leisure airline and UK’s largest operator of city breaks to Europe will wave customers off on busy flights to Rome from Birmingham and Manchester Airports on Monday 7th February, marking the welcome return of Jet2CityBreaks to a range of city break favourites.
