JET 2 LAUNCHES SERVICE TO HISTORIC FRANCE

Budget regional airline Jet2 will begin flying to one of France's most important historical locations from April next year.

Running until June, the service from Leeds Bradford Airport will see flights touch down at Albert (La Somme) in the Picardie region, close to the site of the famous World War One battle of the same name.

The route is aimed at the 'battlefield tours' which are becoming an increasingly common and popular part of the history curriculum, giving youngsters the chance to see the locations in their school textbooks first-hand.

Jet2 have also highlighted the appeal of Albert in terms of its proximity to other destinations such as Lille, the 2004 European Capital of Culture.

Flights will cost from £60.99 each way including taxes.

Low-cost airline Jet2 is based as Leeds Bradford Airport – from where it operates almost 40 of its services - and has flown commercial flights under various names for 30 years.
