EasyJet launches 7 new routes including Christmas market destinations

easyJet is adding seven new routes from multiple UK airports for the upcoming holiday travel season, with winter destinations centered on popular Christmas markets. The carrier—which provides more than 62 million seats annually on services to and from Britain—announced new flights to Copenhagen, Nuremberg and Kraków, with the routes introduced within a three-day span. The airline is also expanding from Newcastle Airport, launching twice-weekly service from November 5 to Copenhagen, while adding connections to Kraków-Balice and Marrakesh Menara later this year. Elsewhere, easyJet introduced a new link between Liverpool John Lennon Airport and Keflavik International Airport in Iceland, resumed direct flights between Manchester and Nuremberg, and launched a year-round route between London Southend and Belfast City on November 2 that runs three times weekly. Competing airlines will offer alternatives on all routes.
