TUI Airways is expanding its Greek island offering with the launch of new direct flights to Kos from Bournemouth for Summer 2026, giving holidaymakers across the South of England more choice and flexibility.
The brand-new route marks the first time TUI has connected Bournemouth directly with Kos. Customers can book seven or 14-night holidays to the popular Greek island, which boasts golden beaches, ancient ruins and relaxing harbour towns.
Kos combines everything that makes the Greek islands so special: pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, charming villages, and rich history including the ancient Asklepion healing temple. With excellent tavernas, water sports, and family-friendly resorts, Kos appeals to couples, families, and groups alike.
Neil Swanson, Managing Director at TUI UK&I said: “This new route to Kos follows a rise in demand for this picturesque Island, which is one of our customers’ favourite Greek destinations. By launching services from Bournemouth for the first time, we’re making it easier than ever for customers across the South of England to enjoy an unforgettable Greek island holiday. The variety of durations available gives our customers real flexibility in planning their perfect getaway, whether that’s a quick 3-night escape or a full two-week break. And with pristine beaches, classic tavernas, crystal-clear waters, charming villages, and rich history, it’s easy for Brits to make the most of their holiday in Kos.”
Steve Gill, Managing Director of Bournemouth Airport, said: “This is fantastic news for our passengers and we’re delighted to see TUI adding Kos to its line-up of holiday destinations from Bournemouth for summer 2026. It’s always great to offer travellers more choice direct from their local airport, and this new service further strengthens our reputation as a convenient gateway to the Mediterranean. We look forward to supporting TUI as the route takes off next year.”
