The airline has also announced thousands of easyJet holiday packages.

EasyJet has unveiled six new routes from four UK airports for summer 2025, expanding its presence across Britain.

The budget airline's growth includes the addition of a new A320 aircraft to be based at Bristol Airport.


The expansion comes after what the carrier described as a record summer performance. The new routes will connect various UK cities with popular European destinations, offering more travel options for Britons.

From Manchester and Edinburgh, passengers will be able to fly to Milan Linate with services operating up to seven days a week throughout the year.

The announcement marks a significant expansion of easyJet's UK operations, with the new connections spanning from Scotland to the South West of England.

Flights between Manchester, Edinburgh and Milan Linate will start earlier than the rest, launching on March 30, 2025.
