These are the best new holiday destinations you can fly to from Leeds Bradford Airport.

Santorini

Santorini is one of the most popular Greek islands for holidaymakers to visit, and now travellers can fly direct from Leeds Bradford Airport.

The Caldera formed by the volcanic eruption centuries ago resulted in amazing sea views - this is topped off by the stunning sunsets.

Skiathos

Leeds Bradford Airport will now have direct flights to the beautiful Greek island of Skiathos, which was used to film Mamma Mia.

The island is best known for its beautiful beaches, harbour-side restaurants and turquoise waters.

Sardinia

You could now take a direct flight to this stunning island nestled in the middle of the Mediterranean near Italy.

It has nearly 2,000km of coastline, mountains and beaches with soft sands perfect for sunbathing.

Tourists come from far and wide to enjoy this picturesque location.

Chambéry

If you're looking to hit the slopes for some winter sports action, Chambéry has everything you need.

This beautiful city at the foot of the French Alps is popular amongst city breakers and snow sports fanatics.

You could head out onto the slopes for a ski session or spend the day exploring the maze of cobblestones that lead to ancient castles, mansions, museums and more.

Sicily

You could fly to the largest Mediterranean island of Sicily, which is home to ancient Greek and Roman ruins, plus the active volcano, Mount Etna.

It has sandy beaches with long stretches of shallow water, and in summer, the crystal-clear Mediterranean sea is so warm it matches the temperature on land.
