easyJet, one of Europe’s leading airlines, has announced it will start a new route between Edinburgh and Birmingham from 29th March 2020. The domestic city connection will operate 13 times a week throughout the year.
Over 180,000 passengers are expected to use the new service during the first 12 months of operation on the airline’s A320 family aircraft, eight of which it currently bases at Edinburgh. Seats are due to go on sale in the coming weeks.
This is the second new Edinburgh route easyJet has announced in as many weeks, following the news that the airline will operate a twice-weekly winter route to Verona in Italy, with the inaugural flight due to take off in December.
