EasyJet launches new Belfast City-Glasgow flights

Low-cost carrier easyJet has launched a new route from Belfast City airport, serving Glasgow from October 31.

Seats went on sale on Tuesday (August 16) with one-way fares from £22.99.

The service will operate three times a week, with departures on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays throughout the winter season until March 24, 2023.

The route is the airline’s fourth service to be launched from Belfast City airport in recent months, following new Gatwick, Bristol and Liverpool links.

Ali Gayward, easyJet’s UK country manager, said: “We are delighted to be launching another new service from Belfast City which will offer our customers more choice when travelling between Belfast and Glasgow.

“This new route further strengthens our network in Belfast, having recently added services to London Gatwick, Liverpool and Bristol from Belfast City.

“We are proud to be the largest airline in Belfast and Northern Ireland and remain committed to offering customers great value fares and more choice when they fly with us.”

Ellie McGimpsey, aviation manager at Belfast City Airport, commented: “Following the success of easyJet’s flights from Belfast City Airport to London Gatwick and Liverpool, and with flights to Bristol taking off in September, we are thrilled to strengthen our partnership with the addition of a service to Glasgow.

“With flights up to three days a week, we are confident this route will be popular for both inbound and outbound travellers.”
