New Flights to Canaries from Liverpool Airport

Travellers planning to enjoy some winter sun over the coming months can book new flights to the Canary Islands from Liverpool Airport flying with Easyjet.

The airline has based a brand new Airbus A320 (which is larger than the current Boeing 737 s) to operate three weekly flights to Fuerteventura and Lanzarote.
The new aircraft seats 180 passengers as opposed to 149 on the 737.

EasyJet first opened its Liverpool base in 1997 and now offers routes to 23 European destinations, with new flights to Dubrovnik Bordeaux and Naples being launched earlier this year.

It is reportedly the largest carrier in the north-west, having carried 2.4 million passengers from the region during the past 12 months.

The introduction of the bigger aircraft and new routes to the Canary Islands reflected continued commitment to the 22.5 million customers who flew with Easy jet last year.
The airline will be launching a total of 22 new routes during the winter season, including flights to Hamburg, Agadir and Porto from Gatwick Airport.

Robin Tudor, head of PR at Peel Airports Group, added: “EasyJet has been an important part of our success over recent years and will continue to be so in the future.

“The new aircraft highlights the continuing importance placed on the Liverpool operation and the confidence they have in us, despite the tough economic conditions.”

If flying to any of these new destinations be sure to book cheaper Liverpool airport parking or if travelling down to Gatwick for the new flights to Hamburg, Agadir and Porto and you are looking to stay overnight a Gatwick hotel parking package will be cheaper than booking your parking with one company and then your hotel.
