Leeds Bradford Airport has launched an exciting new flight route to Geneva in Switzerland thanks to easyJet.

The new service took to the skies for the first time on Saturday, January 18, with the flight route adding another European destination to the airport’s winter offering, meaning customers can now choose from an even bigger range of travel destinations.

The new route has been introduced following the success of easyJet’s route to Paris, which was recently added to the airport’s offering, alongside its long-standing Belfast connection. Flights are now available to book via www.easyJet.com from as little as £32.99 per person.

Geneva is not only renowned as the gateway to the French and Swiss Alps - ideal for winter sports enthusiasts - but is also compact enough to explore on foot as a city break, with plenty of charm to discover around every corner. The crisp Swiss air and renowned culinary scene make it the perfect destination for anyone looking to embrace a fresh start in the new year.
