Liverpool: EasyJet Route News & Base Updates

[Seasider]

It could be that it is specifically for the "Holidays" section that they are wanting to grow.

 

[Silvercity]

Easyjet now have flights loaded throughout next year for Malta, Marrakesh, Prague and Derry

Increases for Dalaman X5, Bodrum x 4 , Enfidha x5, Kos x 2, Paris will remain 5 per week and not reduce during the summer as previously

With the flight increases for next year, this will mean 8 aircraft.

 

[Severn]

On a Monday in peak summer, 9x aircraft are required (3x A319s, 6x A320s) for the schedule, although there are plenty of gaps and with some adjustments 8x aircraft looks likely. Either way, the finished schedule is not here yet!

 

[Silvercity]

Yes ive been hearing 9 aircraft for next year too, nice to see them growing.
