A record 13 million seats on 79,000 flights to and from the UK have been put on sale by easyJet for the peak summer 2015 period.
Tickets for more than 22.5 million seats across the airline’s network during the peak summer schedule between June 1 and September 6 went on sale today (Wednesday).
The budget airline expects to carry more than 45 million passengers throughout the whole of next summer.
The carrier has bases across 11 UK airports and more than 700 routes on sale to destinations across Europe, the Middle East, North Africa and Russia – 370 of which include the UK.
Sample fares lead in at £26.99 from Newcastle to Alicante.
UK director Sophie Dekkers said: “We’re pleased to be putting our peak summer period on sale for our passengers today, allowing them to take advantage of our lowest fares to the sun, cities and beaches across Europe.
“With our record 700-plus routes on sale, passengers have more choice than ever on where to spend their summer break.
“EasyJet flies to popular summer sun destinations at high frequencies during the summer period because this allows travellers to depart on the day they prefer and choose the length of holiday to suit them.
“We expect the bucket and spade routes to Spain, Portugal and the Greek Islands to be as popular as ever, or for late summer sun, Turkey, Egypt and The Canaries will be in demand.”
