From summer 2019,\u00a0<\/b>Jet2<\/b>\u00a0plans to operate 46 different routes from\u00a0<\/b>Birmingham Airport, which is up from 15 when the airline first launched flights from the airport in March 2017.<\/b>\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2019,\u00a0Jet2 plans to run 165 flights a week during peak times\u00a0in Birmingham\u00a0with\u00a01.6 million seats\u00a0on\u00a0sale during the summer.\u00a0In September\u00a0of\u00a0last year,\u00a0the airline\u00a0pushed to recruit\u00a0over\u00a0200\u00a0ground staff, cabin crew, and flight deck\u00a0personnel\u00a0to be based\u00a0in\u00a0Birmingham.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At a special event in Seattle\u00a0as Jet2\u00a0welcomed the\u00a0100th aircraft\u00a0to its fleet,\u00a0Steve Heapy, chief executive of\u00a0the airline, stated:\u00a0“The future for Jet2 in Birmingham is very bright.\u00a0It’s one of our big bases with a massive catchment area and, if we are going to try new routes, Birmingham Airport is one of the key places we would try that from.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Could\u00a0<\/b>more<\/b>\u00a0flights to Birmingham increase\u00a0<\/b>property investment?<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Not only is Jet2 bringing jobs to Birmingham, the company is connecting the city with different parts of the world.\u00a0This could have a lasting impact on the city as a whole, including the\u00a0property market.\u00a0Additional overseas\u00a0flights coming to Birmingham\u00a0could increase interest from investors in\u00a0its\u00a0property\u00a0sector.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As seen in\u00a0Manchester<\/a>,\u00a0overseas\u00a0flights have\u00a0boosted interest in\u00a0the city\u2019s\u00a0property\u00a0market. The flights have made it easier for potential investors, students, and tourists to reach the city.\u00a0Boasting non-stop flights to and from Beijing for over two years now,\u00a0Manchester\u2019s property market has seen\u00a0interest from\u00a0Chinese investors<\/a>\u00a0skyrocket.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Birmingham\u00a0<\/b>is\u00a0<\/b>expected to continue<\/b>\u00a0to see growth<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A recent survey revealed\u00a0the number of\u00a0residential units being built\u00a0in\u00a0Birmingham<\/a>\u00a0is at its highest ever recorded, while completion rates are soaring as well.\u00a0Further growth is expected to come to the city from the\u00a0upcoming high-speed\u00a0rail link HS2<\/a>, which has increased demand for city\u00a0centre\u00a0homes, especially among young professionals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As Birmingham will host\u00a0the\u00a0Commonwealth Games in 2022<\/a>, the local economy is expected to see\u00a0\u00a3500 million\u00a0generated due to the event, in addition to more than\u00a01,100 accommodation units<\/a>\u00a0built.\u00a0With numerous projects and investment coming to Birmingham, the\u00a0future continues to look bright\u00a0for\u00a0this\u00a0city in the Midlands.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
