May sees Newcastle Airport welcome TWO new airline partners and launch flights to FOUR new destinations

Newcastle Airport is set to kick off May with the arrival of TWO new airline partners and the launch of flights to FOUR new destinations. 

Passengers can look forward to new direct flights to Berlin, Copenhagen, Guernsey and Agadir in Morocco this summer - perfect for those seeking everything from vibrant city breaks to relaxing beach holidays. 

Eurowings will operate direct flights from the Airport - recognised as the ‘Best in the World’ at the 2024 Routes World Conference – to Berlin every Thursday and Sunday from 1 May, with fares starting from just £39.99 one-way. 

Named one of Europe’s top city-break destinations by The Times, The Telegraph and Condé Nast Traveller, the city offers something for everyone from historic monuments such as the Brandenburg Gate and the iconic Reichstag building to its vibrant nightlife and world-class food scene. 

On 2 May, the Airport will welcome the first of its two new airline partners as Norwegian Airlines begin operating flights to Copenhagen every Friday and Monday, with fares starting from £42.70 one-way. 

Perfect for a long weekend or week-long getaway, visitors can stroll through Nyhavn – the city’s charming 17th-century waterfront lined with colourful townhouses and bustling bars and restaurants, spend quality family time at the world-famous amusement park Tivoli Gardens or take a trip to see the beloved Little Mermaid statue. 

The Airport’s summer schedule will also get an extra boost when TUI launches weekly flights to Agadir from 5 May. Nestled on the Moroccan coastline, passengers can choose from holiday packages for two adults starting from £453 per person. 

Known for its golden beaches, year-round sunshine and luxurious all-inclusive resorts, Agadir is ideal for those in search of a sun-soaked escape. 

On 6 May, the Airport’s second new airline partner - Blue Islands – will begin flying to Guernsey, with services operating every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. 

The charming Channel Island offers stunning coastal walks, unspoiled beaches and an array of award-winning restaurants - perfect for a short break or visiting friends and family. 

Fares start from £89.99 one-way and flights on Thursdays and Saturdays include a short stop in Jersey. 

In addition to these new destinations, SunExpress will expand its services at the Airport with the launch of twice-weekly flights to Dalaman every Wednesday and Sunday from 4 May, with fares starting from £85 one-way. 

Known as the turquoise coast, it is home to beautiful blue flag beaches, including the vibrant Blue Lagoon of Ölüdeniz beach, as well as lively resorts and luxurious hotels. 

Leon McQuaid, Director of Aviation Development at Newcastle Airport, said: “We are delighted to be launching new routes to Berlin, Copenhagen, Guernsey and Agadir. 

“The arrival of Norwegian Airlines and Blue Islands, alongside continued investment from Eurowings, SunExpress and TUI, further enhances our growing route network with passengers able to fly directly to 84 destinations and more than 300 onward connections worldwide. 

“We look forward to celebrating with our airline partners when the new routes take off over the next week.” 

Flights are on sale and can be booked directly with airlines or through your local travel agent.
