British Airways is to launch seven new routes from Manchester this summer and three new destinations from Stansted.



From May, it will begin summer-only direct flights from Manchester to the Alicante, Malaga, Ibiza and Palma, the Greek island of Mykonos, Nice in the South of France and a weekly service to London City Airport.



In addition it will launch flights from Stansted to Florence, Geneva and Nice and there will be increased frequency on existing routes to Ibiza and Palma. Flights to Malaga and Faro will also resume for the summer.



All flights will operate on Embraer 190 jet aircraft. Flights from Manchester will operate once a week at weekends, with the exception of the Ibiza route which will operate three times a week, and will provide more than 35,000 extra seats from the northwest.
