It might be a cool 2 degrees centigrade out today – but there are some new routes from easyJet to help you think of warmer times in Summer 2023.

The move follows recent announcements of aircraft being based at Belfast International, Edinburgh and Manchester.
Nine new routes will be joining the network for the summer, with lead-in pricing given:
- London Luton to Murcia up to three times a week from 1 April 2023 with fares starting from £31.99
- Bristol to Enfidha up to twice a week from 27 March 2023 with fares starting from £28.99
- Birmingham to Milan up to three times a week from 26 June 2023 with fares starting from £28.99

As usual, the flight prices listed are based on one way per person including taxes and will go up depending on demand.
Larger bags, seating assignments and hold baggage will be subject to extra charges (and I’ve got a little investigation on that soon).
Those who have got the pennies and planning to start early can book via easyJet.com or through its Mobile App.
In addition – for those who are long-term planners – the airline is readying to sell its autumn 2023 operation from the 8th of December onwards, for travel between 1 October and 30 November 2023.
In Quotes
Ali Gayward, easyJet’s UK Country Manager commented:
“We are delighted to be launching even more new routes from the UK today, for next summer. By further strengthening our network, we’re offering our customers in the UK even greater choice to explore more of the most fantastic beach and city destinations that Europe has to offer. And with our October and November 2023 schedule on sale from tomorrow, now is a fantastic time for customers to book early for next autumn and snap up the best low fares across our network, whether that’s for a great-value getaway or an October Half Term break.”
Continuing growth
easyJet is continuing to bank on growth, even in these tight fiscal times – as people try to seek a cheaper getaway than usual. With it basing more aircraft at UK airports (most notably – around the regions and not just London), traffic from these areas seems to be key to growth.
With the airline serving 21 UK airports, offering over 463 routes to over 120 destinations from the UK to Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, there’s plenty of choice for the seasons ahead.
