easyJet: three million passengers to and from Birmingham and a new summer route to Faro

easyJet, the UK’s largest airline, is this week celebrating carrying over three million passengers to and from Birmingham airport. To mark the occasion the airline surprised two lucky travellers Terri and Stephen from Rowley Regis, flying today from Birmingham to Belfast, with a pair of easyJet return flights.

 

The airline has also announced today that it will be launching a brand new, twice-weekly service to Faro in Portugal. Seats go on sale on from Thursday 17th March, with low fares available from just £24.99* (*Flights one way per person including taxes). Flights will depart on Wednesdays and Sundays throughout the summer season between 1 May and 26 October 2022. The new route comes following new summer services to Malaga and Palma de Mallorca which were launched last year and also set to take off for this first time this summer.

 

The airline has seen sustained growth in recent months in Birmingham and its operations are now larger ever before. This summer, easyJet is set to operate nearly four times more seats from Birmingham than it did in summer 2019, serving more destinations and providing more choice for customers in the Midlands to enjoy a long-awaited summer holiday and reconnect with family and friends.

 

easyJet now serves customers in Birmingham and the surrounding region with convenient connections to eight airports across the UK and Europe, providing access to a range of city, ski and beach destinations via Belfast International Airport, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Amsterdam, Geneva, Palma, Malaga and Faro.
