As well as the new route, holidaymakers will benefit from new package holidays available with easyJet holidays. Travellers can choose from 13 hotels offered by the tour operator in Istanbul, with city break packages starting from £437 per person which includes hotel, flights and 23kg of luggage.
Ali Gayward, easyJet’s UK Country Manager said: “We are delighted to be adding the brand new destination of Istanbul to easyJet’s network. The new route from our Manchester base to this iconic city further expands the choice we can offer our customers from the North-West for both flights and package holidays, and promises to offer travellers a vibrant and culturally rich destination to explore, as well as providing greater connectivity to the city to support inbound tourism and business travel alike.
“While this region has thankfully not been affected by the recent tragic earthquakes, we continue to collect donations onboard our flights for UNICEF’s emergency appeal.
"We would like to thank all of our customers who have already donated for their kindness and generosity in raising over £400,000, which will help UNICEF and their volunteers to continue providing a vital lifeline in the region for the children and families who have been affected by the earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria.”
