Jet2.com, a popular British low-cost airline, has today announced the launch of four new routes starting May 20, 2009 with one of them including the Croatian Adriatic town of Dubrovnik, to be operated from their base in Leeds Bradford.Speaking about the announcement, Philip Meeson, boss of Jet2.com, commented: "At Jet2.com we are committed to ensuring that holidaymakers in the UK have unprecedented choice when it comes to their holiday destination. These new route launches really underline this commitment to our customers and we are confident that they will be an extremely successful addition to our schedule. Dubrovnik is an especially exciting addition for us as it is the first time that we have flown into Croatia. With its Italian influences and miles of clean, sandy beaches, it is a destination which is fast becoming one of Europe’s leading holiday hot spots".

With this addition a total of 16 scheduled airlines now operate to Dubrovnik Airport. Croatia Airlines and Dubrovnik Airlines are the only airlines from the EX-YU region to operate flights to the holiday town. Jet2.com does not operate any flights to any former Yugoslav republic.
