Tui adds Cancun as second long-haul destination from Doncaster Sheffield

Tui has added Cancun in Mexico as its second long-haul route from Doncaster Sheffield airport.

The operator already serves Melbourne airport for Orlando in Florida on a weekly basis using Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft from the South Yorkshire airport.

Head of aviation development Declan Maguire said: “This summer Tui will offer 30% more seats to passengers than before the pandemic, a testament to the strength of our partnership and the quality of the airport experience delivered to Tui customers.

“This growth means additional seats to holiday favourites such as Tenerife, Lanzarote, Alicante and Palma and the addition of Faro and Dubrovnik.

“We’re seeing a real upsurge in departures to popular holiday destinations as passengers make the most of the ease in restrictions and make a welcome return to international travel.”

Tui aviation planning director Karen Switzer said: “We’re delighted to include Cancun as one of our long-haul routes from Doncaster Sheffield Airport.

“We’re committed to providing customers more availability to our great range of holidays by expanding our regional flying programme.”

“This will give holidaymakers even more choice when booking their holidays and the opportunity to experience our great range of hotel concepts and destinations.”
