Inverness Airport general manager Graeme Bell said: “There has been considerable demand from Highland holidaymakers for the Majorca service in 2019 and we are delighted that JetsGo have already committed to an extended service for 2020.
"For many people, October is the ideal time to visit Majorca. The weather is usually warm and sunny and the island is a little less busy than it can be during the height of summer.”
JetsGo director Daniel Reilly said: “We have been very pleased with how popular our holidays have proven to be from Inverness Airport.
"While there’s many people out there who prefer to build their own holidays these days, it’s clear that package holidays still have their place in the holiday market.
“As well as our expanded programme to Majorca for 2020, we are also looking at other opportunities from Inverness and look forward to offering a wider choice of destinations in the near future.”
