Budget airline easyJet has announced plans to launch a new route from Manchester Airport and create around 40 jobs.
Flights to Murcia in South East Spain will launch on May 2 next year and will operate on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Tickets are expected to go on sale from December 7.
The addition of the 186-seat Airbus A320neo will mean easyJet will have 21 aircraft based at the airport.
