Jet2.com has just celebrated the launch of its 41st destination from Leeds-Bradford with island’s most famous sweet treat.

The North’s leading leisure airline, Jet2.com, served up Yorkshire tea and an aircraft-shaped Madeira cake to mark the launch of Yorkshire’s first ever direct service to the beautiful island of Madeira, from Leeds Bradford Airport.

Flights to the picturesque Portuguese island will commence on 14 February 2011 running right through to 31 October 2011. The brand new weekly flight is Yorkshire’s only direct scheduled service to the popular holiday haven and follows hot on the heels of Jet2.com’s highly successful Manchester to Madeira route, which was launched earlier this year.
