The airline will also be launching new services from Belfast to Bordeaux, Heraklion in Crete and Bodrum in Turkey as well as flights from Glasgow to Split in Croatia along with Greece islands of Kos, which starts from next summer. The expansion means that easyJet will now offer 107 routes from airport. The budget airline plans to fly around 1.3 million more passengers a year from March 2014 to and from Gatwick. According to Huge Aitken, UK commercial manager, these new routes add further choice for passengers from easyJet’s largest base at affordable price and with great service. Choosing easyJet makes even more sense for the millions of business travellers who fly with it from London Gatwick every year.
The new schedule is expected to lead to the recruitment of additional 200 pilots and cabin crew at Gatwick which increase the annual profits to 50%.
