EasyJet to resume flying on June 15, but with only one international flight from the UK

EasyJet is to resume flying on June 15 but only on a small number of routes and there will be only one international flight from the UK, from London Gatwick to Nice in the south of France.

Most of its flights in the UK will be on domestic routes, but it said more services will be announced over the coming weeks as customer demand increases and travel restrictions across Europe are relaxed.

Passengers will have to wear masks, as will crew, and there will be no inflight food service.

A small number of domestic flights will operate from Belfast International, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Gatwick, Glasgow, Inverness, the Isle of Man, Liverpool and Newcastle from June 15.

EasyJet is also resuming flying in France from Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon, Nantes, Nice, Paris CDG and Toulouse, and from Barcelona, Geneva, Lisbon and Porto.

EasyJet’s CEO Johan Lundgren said:  “The safety and wellbeing of our customers remains our highest priority, which is why we are implementing a number of measures to enhance safety at each part of the journey, from disinfecting the aircraft to requiring customers and crew to wear masks. These measures will remain in place for as long as is needed to ensure customers and crew are able to fly safely as the world continues to recover from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.”
