TUI has introduced three fresh flight paths to a Greek island currently enjoying a temperature of 24C.
The airline is set to launch three new direct routes to Kos, making it more convenient for travelers to explore a piece of Mediterranean paradise. These new services will operate from Bournemouth, Exeter, and London Stansted, providing holidaymakers in the South of England with a seamless way to access the sunny Greek destination.
This marks the first-ever direct link between Bournemouth and Exeter to Kos by TUI, opening up the island to a new set of vacationers who can now fly from their local airports. Travelers can now book seven or 14-night getaways to the popular island, known for its golden beaches, ancient landmarks, and serene harbor towns.
Londoners will also benefit from the reinstated Stansted route, with flights running twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays. With summer temperatures averaging a warm 27°C, Kos is an ideal spot for sun-seekers looking to bask in the Mediterranean sunshine.
Kos offers affordability, with an average beer costing around £3.50 and an ice cream about £2.60, making it a budget-friendly destination. Steeped in history, the island boasts attractions like the Asklepieion sanctuary, the Roman Odeon, and the medieval Neratzia Castle. For stunning evening views, visitors can venture up to the mountain village of Zia to witness the sunset over the hills.
A notable feature of Kos is its bike-friendly environment, with dedicated paths spanning the 30-mile landmass, earning it the moniker ‘cycling island.’
For those planning to enjoy the warm November weather in Kos, alternative airlines must be considered as there are no direct flights from UK airports during the winter. The quickest route involves a stopover in Athens, extending the journey to about six hours. Flights are available for £60 in November.
Neil Swanson, the managing director at TUI UK and Ireland, commented on the new routes to Kos, attributing them to the increasing demand for the picturesque island among customers. These additions aim to make Greek island holidays more accessible to customers in the South of England, offering a range of durations to suit various preferences.
TUI is currently offering a selection of packages for travelers to Kos, providing flexibility for short escapes or extended breaks.
