Carrier will ramp up to 75% of routes by August, but with less frequency >>

EasyJet relaunched flights from 22 airports across Europe for the first time since operations ceased at the end of March as a result of the pandemic. The British carrier’s first flight took off from London Gatwick en route to Glasgow, the same route the carrier flew when it launched in 1995. The airline said that aircraft have been maintained in a flight-ready condition so it is ready to launch 310 flights this week across the European network, but mostly on domestic UK routes. The majority of flights during June will be on domestic routes with the airline planning to fly around 50% of its 1,022 routes in July, increasing to around 75% in August, although with a lower frequency of flights on the routes. A new range of additional measures are in place to help ensure the safety and well-being of all customers and crew onboard. These include enhanced aircraft disinfection for aircraft; masks required for customers, cabin crew and ground crew; and no food service onboard flights, all of which operate on a short-haul network.
