easyJet has announced three new Scottish routes for summer 2023 featuring popular beach and city breaks.
The new routes go on sale today and will give Scottish travellers the chance to book flights to Santorini, Antalya and Lisbon.
Flights from Glasgow to Lisbon are scheduled to launch from June 2 with twice-weekly departures on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
From Edinburgh Airport, flights to Antalya are scheduled to launch from June 3, with departures on Wednesdays and Saturdays, and to Santorini from June 2 with a weekly departure on Tuesdays, all throughout the summer season.
easyJet launches 11 new UK routes
The new flights are among 11 new routes that easyJet has added to its UK network for summer 2023 today, to some of Europe’s best beach and city destinations in Italy, France, The Netherlands, and the Greek Islands as well as Turkey.
Flights are available to book from today on the easyJet website and via the mobile app.
Kate Sherry, aviation director at Edinburgh Airport, said: “A new year always brings new routes, and January is the perfect time to start thinking and get excited about that sunshine holiday later in the year.
“It’s great to see easyJet adding Antalya and Santorini to its already extensive selection at Edinburgh, and we hope the thought of a summer getaway to these fantastic destinations will provide some excitement to our passengers.”
Christopher Tibbett, group head of airline relations and marketing at AGS Airports, said: “This announcement from easyJet is tremendous news as Lisbon is a fantastic city and I’m certain it will be a very popular destination with our passengers when the route launches in June.
“Following easyJet’s announcement late last year that the airline will also operate a twice-weekly service to Porto, Scottish travellers looking to enjoy city breaks in Portugal will be well served the summer at Glasgow.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
