“We’re sending out newly designed branded assets to over 1,000 stores and we’re hosting training and customer brand events, open to all our trade partners, to help support them in booking the best holidays for their customers.

“And we know that many of our trade partners love to travel themselves but were unable to get away in 2020, so we’re really excited to be launching a weekly holiday draw to give our agents a bit of a boost and to show our appreciation for their support of easyJet holidays.

“We’re really looking forward to announcing the competition winners and to supporting our trade partners as they start to re-open and continuing our successful partnership with the trade for this summer and beyond.”
