This will be followed by weekly flights to Skiathos from May 23 next year until October 10.
And from May 24 to November 1, flights will operate once week to Preveza.
Outside of Greece, new fights a week will launch from Luton to Menorca from May 5 to October 30.
Prices for the flights are yet to be revealed.
The addition of Skiathos and Preveza, along with the routes Girona and Verona, make Jet2 the exclusive operator of the destinations from Luton.
Extra flight capacity is being added to a number of other destinations next summer as well, including the Greek islands of Crete, Rhodes and Zante.
Majorca, Fuerteventura and Antalya will also have more capacity in summer 2026.
Jet2 boss Steve Heapy said they had been “overwhelmed” with the positive feedback after launching from London Luton.
He added: With five brand-new routes, additional capacity, and extra aircraft coming into operation, our Summer 26 programme gives holidaymakers exactly what they want – more choice and flexibility.”

“We are thrilled to see this continued investment from Jet2, ensuring even greater choice and flexibility for the millions of passengers who choose LLA to kickstart their summer travels each year.”
