Jet2 announces flights to Iceland from Liverpool John Lennon Airport

Jet2.com and Jet2CityBreaks have revealed even more great news for local holidaymakers and independent travel agents, by announcing a brand-new programme of once-in-a-lifetime trips to Iceland from Liverpool John Lennon Airport for Winter 25/26.

The leading leisure airline and UK’s largest operator of city breaks to Europe have put on a series of dedicated trips that are perfectly timed for those wanting to experience the Northern Lights.

The programme will see the companies operate three dedicated trips in total, including a three-night trip on 30th November 2025, a three-night trip on 15th February 2026 and a three-night trip on 5th April 2026. The trips in February and April are ideally timed for the February half-term and Easter holidays.

As well as providing customers with fantastic choice when it comes to which month or period they want to travel from Liverpool John Lennon Airport, the flights are also perfectly timed for those wanting to witness the spectacular Northern Lights and experience the best of Iceland.

The release of the programme today gives local holidaymakers the opportunity to book ahead and tick the destination off their bucket list. Jet2.com and Jet2CityBreaks’ programme of Iceland trips have continued to enjoy huge success from other UK airport bases and the companies expect the same response from Liverpool John Lennon Airport, particularly given the reaction to the launch of flights and holidays from the new airport base.

Thanks to its abundance of natural wonders and wide variety of sights to see, Iceland has continued to experience strong demand with customers and independent travel agents across the UK. From the world’s most northernmost capital, Reykjavik, to volcanic landscapes and the night skies featuring the spectacular Northern Lights, it is easy to see why Iceland is deemed a once-in-a-lifetime trip.

Customers can pick from flight-only or package holiday options, with package options with Jet2CityBreaks available for a low £60 per person deposit. These package options with Jet2CityBreaks include a guided Northern Lights Tour, flights with Jet2.com, 22kg hold luggage and transfers to and from the airport, as well as a choice of 3 and 4-star hotels in central Reykjavik. In addition, a choice of excursions to the South Shore, Golden Circle and Blue Lagoon are also available to purchase.
