New flights to Naples and Hurghada City in Egypt will be taking off from Doncaster Sheffield Airport next year.
The airport, just half an hour away from Lincolnshire, will welcome the two new TUI routes from May 2018.
Holidaymakers will be able to advantage of flights leaving for Naples throughout the summer months, with the first flight on May 7.
Departures to Italy’s third largest city will continue until the end of October and the routes will add in the region of 20,000 new seats of capacity.
A new weekly route to Hurghada will be available for people looking to book a holiday for winter 2018-19.
Hurghada City is the second largest Egyptian city on the Red Sea and, thanks to its world-renowned coral reefs, one of Egypt’s leading holiday destinations.
Chris Harcombe, aviation development director at Doncaster Sheffield Airport, said: “We are thrilled to introduce this summer time route to Naples and a brand new route to DSA, in Hurghada City, Egypt.”
Karen Switzer, director of aviation planning for TUI UK & Ireland, added: “Introducing the new routes from Doncaster Sheffield Airport is a key part of our strategy to offer all our customers as much choice as possible to give them the holiday experience that best suits their individual needs.
“Holidaymakers in the local area will now have wider access than ever before to our diverse collection of destinations and hotel concepts.”
