“We’re pleased to be putting this new route and packages from Belfast City Airport to London Southend on sale, providing our customers in Northern Ireland with another convenient connection to London and the South East.
“We are committed to offering customers greater choice and exceptional value, always aiming to make travel easy, and we look forward to welcoming more passengers onboard this winter.”
Katy Best, Chief Commercial Officer at Belfast City Airport, said:
“The addition of easyJet’s route from Belfast City Airport to Southend Airport will provide further choice and convenience for passengers, enhancing our connectivity with London, Essex, and the wider Southeast of England.
