TUI has launched its winter 2025 holidays and there are more free children's places than ever before.

Customers can now book holidays up until Easter 2026 thanks to an extended booking window.

For those in the North East, more flying options have been added, including extra flights from Newcastle Airport to Cancun in March and April 2026.

TUI’s Search for Santa day trips to Lapland will also be available for winter 2025, with an extra flight from Newcastle Airport to Kittila.

Phillip Iveson, commercial director for TUI UK, said: “With 32 destinations on offer for holidaymakers flying out of Newcastle Airport and strong demand for Mexico, we’re pleased to upweight our Easter flying to Cancun with the addition of three flights over March and April.

“And with more free winter kids' places than ever, a multitude of beach hotels from the Canary Islands to the Caribbean and winter breaks to Lapland - whatever kind of getaway customers in the North East are after they’ll find it with TUI.”

Leon McQuaid, Director for Aviation Development at Newcastle Airport, said: “TUI have already announced a brand-new direct service to Agadir from summer 2025, so Cancun now represents even more investment from TUI in the North East."
