The budget carrier pulled out of Southend during the pandemic, but resumed operations there in May 2022. However, Monday’s launch (31 March) marks the first time it has based aircraft there.
EasyJet will operate 122 flights a week from Southend this summer with its network at the airport growing a previous seven routes to 20, amounting to 330,000 seats to beach and city destinations across Europe and north Africa.
