The first flight for 2025 departed from Manchester Airport to the Norwegian city.
Over the coming weeks, Jet2 will be expanding their Spring 25 programme to Bergen even further, giving even more customers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience Norway’s world-renowned Fjords.
Flights will also be departing from Bristol, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Leeds Bradford, Newcastle International and London Stansted Airports.
For the first time, the airline will start operating to Bergen from Edinburgh.
Travellers can buy four-night midweek breaks departing on Monday May 5 and May 12 from Jet2CityBreaks.
Three-night long-weekend breaks are also available, departing on Friday May 9 and May 16.
Bristol and London Stansted will also be added to the route.
These three brand-new routes, in addition to the extra flights on sale from existing airport bases, means that the total seat capacity has more than doubled in comparison to last year’s programme.
As well as providing an easy gateway for holidaymakers to access breathtaking Fjords such as Nærøyfjord and Aurlandsfjord, the city of Bergen itself provides visitors with one of the world’s most significant examples of the culture and history of a particular medieval settlement.
Bryggen, the historic harbour district, is part of UNESCO’s World Heritage List, complemented by a backdrop of stunning mountains wrapped around waterside restaurants, bars and shops.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “We are delighted to see our biggest ever programme of flights and city breaks to Bergen start operating today with our first flights of the year departing from Manchester Airport, and flights starting from a further six UK airport bases in the coming weeks.
“The addition of extra flights and packages to this awe-inspiring destination for Spring 25, including three brand-new routes, gives customers even more opportunities to experience the stunning Fjords.
“Bergen is a lively and charming city bursting with gems to be discovered, and we expect this expanded programme to be a hit amongst holidaymakers.”
