The new flights are available to book now from just £19.99 and will take off with tourists from November this year, adding to other city breaks destinations like Milan, and Riga.
Passengers will be able to fly direct to the Spanish city of Barcelona every Tuesday and Saturday, and to Cork, Ireland every Friday and Sunday until March 2023.

“These two new routes offer fantastic city break opportunities for our leisure passengers.
“On top of this, I am confident they will also be popular with local businesses that already do business, or are looking to develop business links, in the two cities.”
The no-frills airline recently opened a £150m base at Newcastle Airport, creating over 60 new jobs.
It currently operates over 130 flights a week from the North East airport.
