Dubrovnik flights from Newcastle confirmed by Jet2holidays

Travelling to Dubrovnik for a sailing holiday in Croatia just got even cheaper after budget airline Jet2holidays announced the introduction of flights to the city from Newcastle.

Situated along the most southerly region of the Dalmatian coast, recent times have seen Dubrovnik emerge as one of the top destinations for an affordable Croatia holiday in the Balkans.

The proximity of the sea makes it an ideal location for an Adriatic cruise while the popular white sandy beaches offer the perfect spot for a bit of rest and relaxation.

Jet2holidays managing director Steve Heapy said: With its famed sapphire waters, unspoilt charm and the fact it is great value compared to other Mediterranean resorts, Croatia is fast becoming a holiday favourite.”

Reasonably priced options include Dubrovnik cruises while a range of Croatia tours also explore the region by road, meaning there are plenty of low cost opportunities to explore the region.

All of which makes the arrival of jet2 flights from Newcastle the ideal addition, with the airport set to be the first in the north-east to offer trips to the region.

Flights from Newcastle to Dubrovnik will be available from May 2012 – just in time for a music festival as part of a Croatia holiday.
