The carrier has added another 100,000 seats for first-quarter (Q1) 2022 in anticipation of restoring capacity to 70% of pre-pandemic levels, thanks in the main to "particularly strong demand" for winter sun destinations.
During its fourth quarter, easyJet flew 17.3 million seats – 58% of the 2019 capacity flown during the same period (three months to 30 September). Intra-European and UK domestic routes have performed strongest, with UK government travel restrictions still hampering demand for international ex-UK flights.
