Jet2 begin flying out of Bristol Airport - this is the full list of destinations

Travel company Jet2 has begun flying out of Bristol Airport.

The first flight was to Palma in Majorca and left at around 8am on Friday 2 June, with 189 passengers on board.

While mainland Spain remains on the Government's amber travel list, the Balearics, including Majorca, are on the green list.

That means people will not have to quarantine on their return.

The return of more commercial flights to Bristol will be welcomed by those in the industry, who last month held a 'Day of Action' calling on the government to do more to help businesses that rely on international travel.
