The airline will operate an extra Sunday service to Paris Charles de Gaulle between July and August; and an extra Thursday flight each week to Palma de Mallorca during peak season, June to October.
John Upton, CEO of the award-winning airport, said: “This increase not only enhances connectivity but also provides travellers with more convenient options to explore these two vibrant destinations. London Southend is committed to continually developing and evolving the travel experience for our passengers, and this expansion is a testament to that dedication."
The airport has a dedicated on-site rail station around 100 steps from the terminal, with trains taking less than an hour from central London. The airport is around 44 minutes from Stratford, with connections to the Elizabeth Line.
Ali Gayward, easyJet’s UK Country Manager, added: "We are delighted to be increasing our flying across our routes from London Southend to Paris and Majorca this summer, providing customers more convenient, direct connections.
“Paris is proving popular with those looking for a city break or travelling for business, and the increase in frequency of our flights to Majorca from the airport provides additional options for customers’ summer holidays with more choice and great value fares.”
