easyJet to expand worldwide connections
Following a press flight with its new chief executive, easyJet made several announcements.
The Times and Buying Business Travel write that easyJet ‘will strike deals’ with budget long-haul carriers on routes to the United States, Caribbean and the Middle East as part of a ‘long-haul price war with British Airways.’
The airline said yesterday that the deals would enable travellers to book connecting flights on a single ticket out of seven main European airports from this spring, in addition to two hubs launched last year. The articles note that easyjet passengers would transfer on to airlines such as Thomas Cook, Norwegian and Westjet, the Canadian carrier.
