Friday, 08 Aug 2008 16:33
A new direct flight service from Edinburgh airport to Sardinia has been announced by Jet2.com for next summer.
From May 16th 2009, Scottish holidaymakers will be able to fly direct to the popular Italian holiday island, bringing Jet2.com's routes from Edinburgh to eight overall.
The regional airline will fly into Olbia on the island's north-east coast, which has one of the most beautiful stretches of beach in the Mediterranean.
Speaking about the route launch, Philip Meeson of Jet2.com commented: "Sardinia has proved to be an extremely popular summer destination when we launched the route from our Leeds Bradford base this May which is why we decided to extend this service to Edinburgh.
"With its white beaches, charismatic towns, picturesque harbours and delicious cuisine, it is a destination that can truly offer something for everyone."
Flights will depart Edinburgh to Sardinia once a week on Saturdays.
