Two new domestic flight routes launched at Aberdeen

Two new flight routes are set to launch at Aberdeen Airport.

Starting next month, easyJet will run the services between the Granite City, Bristol and Manchester.

Ali Gayward, easyJet’s UK Country Manage, said: "We know our customers can’t wait to be reunited with friends and family or have more opportunity to explore the UK so these new routes from Scotland should prove popular and will further strengthen our UK domestic network, providing customers with even more choice as we operate more seats on domestic flights from Scotland than any other airline.

"We also know it is important to our customers to be reunited with loved ones overseas so we continue to urge the UK government to add more countries to the green list – which can be done safely - to make this possible.

"We continue to have some of the most flexible policies currently in place so customers can book with confidence and change their plans if they need to, making travel as easy as possible this summer."

Mark Beveridge, operations director at Aberdeen International Airport, said: "It is great to see easyJet growing its domestic offering and presence at Aberdeen International Airport with a Manchester and Bristol route.

"These routes strengthen our connectivity in the north-east of Scotland and bringing back business safely is a key priority at our airport.

"We have already this year seen the restart of the popular Gatwick route with easyJet in May which was warmly welcomed by our passengers and stakeholders."
