Budget airline easyJet is to continue its expansion of routes operated from Liverpool as two more destinations are added to its offering at John Lennon Airport.
The carrier has outlined plans to introduce flights to Bodrum in Turkey and the Greek Island of Rhodes.
These new flights mean that easyJet will carry 2.6 million passengers in and out of the city's airport each year, and fly to 25 European destinations.
The announcement follows the recent announcement that the airline plans to introduce a 10th aircraft to Liverpool and will also launch a new service to Malta on 13th June.
Flights to the thriving holiday resort Bodrum, which will operate twice-weekly on a Monday and Friday, will begin operating on the 11th June.
The following day, flights to the picturesque Rhodes will begin arriving and departing from the airport, twice a week on a Wednesday and Saturday.
Trevor Spinks, easyJet's Commercial Manager siad: "Don't let the post-Christmas blues get you down, start planning your escape to the sun now.
"The new easyJet routes to Bodrum and Rhodes will give the people of the North West the opportunity to explore these beautiful and historic destinations."
Peel Airports spokesman Robin Tudor said: "In this post festive season period, you could say news about flights to Bodrum from JLA, are one bit of Turkey you won’t be fed up with in the New Year and we expect seats on these flights to be ‘gobbled’ up fast!"
