Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) has launched two new easyJet services to Palma and Malaga.
The first flight to Palma took to the skies on Sunday (30th March) and Malaga yesterday (Wednesday).
Passengers on the inaugural flights were given a helping hand with their hand luggage, with special LBA golf caddies assisting travellers onto the plane.
