With the festive season less than 100 days away, excitement is building as travelers start planning their holiday escapes. While Bristol offers plenty to enjoy during Christmas, many individuals, couples, families, and groups prefer to experience the magic of Christmas markets abroad.
Jet2.com and Jet2CityBreaks have announced a wide-ranging schedule of flights and city breaks, offering travelers access to 11 enchanting festive destinations just a few hours from Bristol Airport. These include Berlin, Bratislava, Budapest, Cologne, Copenhagen, Gdansk, Krakow, Malmo, Prague, Tallinn, and Vienna.
This Winter 25/26 Christmas Markets programme is Jet2’s most ambitious yet, providing over 250,000 seats and featuring more than 50 routes to popular European Christmas market cities. Among these, 11 new routes have been added, including a debut destination—Tallinn. Estonia’s charming capital is renowned for its picturesque Old Town, which transforms into a winter wonderland, rich in history, culture, shopping, and vibrant nightlife, making it a perfect festive getaway.
