Jet2 has expanded its Bergerac programme for summer 2027 with the launch of a new route from Bristol Airport.
The new weekly Saturday service to Bergerac, which will serve the Dordogne region, will operate from 22 May to 25 September 2027 and goes on sale today.
The addition follows previously announced Bergerac routes from Birmingham and Manchester for summer 2027. Combined with the existing Leeds Bradford service, Jet2 will offer flights to Bergerac from four UK airports next summer.
The expansion will increase Jet2’s Bergerac capacity by more than 400% year-on-year, with more than 27,000 seats on sale than in 2026, reflecting growing demand for the destination.
The programme also supports sales of Jet2holidays’ Eurocamp product in the region, with packages including car hire and access to holiday parks close to lakes, rivers and popular tourist areas.
The addition of Bergerac brings the number of Jet2 destinations on sale from Bristol for summer 2027 to 37, following the recent addition of a Bristol-Jersey route to its network.
CEO Steve Heapy said: “The launch of our brand-new Bristol Airport route, alongside new services from Birmingham and Manchester in addition to our existing Leeds Bradford programme, means that customers and independent travel agents have even more opportunity to access this stunning part of France.
“With capacity growing fivefold compared to summer ’26, this is a fantastic demonstration of our confidence in Bergerac and the Dordogne region, and we are looking forward to a very successful summer ’27.”
Bergerac Airport CEO Gauthier De Malet added: “Bergerac Dordogne Périgord Airport is delighted to welcome Jet2’s announcement of this new route.
“This development further strengthens Jet2’s presence at Bergerac and reflects the airline’s confidence in our airport and in the long-term potential of the Dordogne as a destination. It is excellent news for our airport, for tourism, and for the wider economic development of the region.”
