Thursday, July 4, 2024 This morning, Jet2.com and Jet2CityBreaks celebrated the departure of their very first flight to Porto from Manchester Airport, inaugurating the new route for Summer 24. The fully booked aircraft marks the beginning of the companies’ services to Porto, which will continue until November 17, 2024.

The introduction of this route was accelerated from Summer 25 to Summer 24 due to strong customer interest. As a result, travelers and travel agents in the North West are now able to visit Porto this summer, with flights departing every Thursday and Sunday. A festive atmosphere greeted passengers at Manchester Airport with a red-carpet send-off and cupcakes to set a cheerful mood for the journey.



Jet2.com and Jet2CityBreaks are also planning to extend their services to the West Midlands. Starting March 27, 2025, they will offer flights from Birmingham Airport to Porto with two weekly flights (Thursday and Sunday) throughout Summer 25.

This expansion ensures that both Manchester and Birmingham Airports will serve as gateways to Porto next summer, providing ample options for those planning a cultural trip to the city. Porto, located along the Douro River, offers a blend of historical attractions, culinary delights, vibrant nightlife, and tranquil places. The city’s picturesque streets, famed shopping centers, and scenic Foz do Douro promenade make it a perfect destination for couples, families, and groups.
