UK consumer champion Jet2 has today announced the launch of a brand-new route to Bergerac from Bristol Airport for Summer 27, giving customers and independent travel agents across the South West even more choice when it comes to booking a summer getaway.

The leading leisure airline and UK’s largest tour operator will operate weekly Saturday services from Bristol Airport to Bergerac from 22nd May to 25th September 2027, with flights and holidays, including holidays to Eurocamp parks, going on sale today.
