easyJet, Europe’s top airline by its network, is pushing ahead with its local commitment and investment, adding an Airbus A320 from summer 2020 and paving the way to the launch of four new lines from Bordeaux in 2020, bringing the total to 42 lines. easyJet will thus rank as the top airline in Bordeaux for the number of available destinations.
36 new cabin crew positions will also be created, bringing the total workforce to 200 employees, two years after opening its local base.
As from summer 2020, Bordeaux residents will have a choice of four new charming seaside destinations at affordable rates: Corsica and Sardinia with Ajaccio and Figari, and Olbia in the high summer season, and Fuerteventura (Canaries) all year round.
Starting this winter, Bordeaux residents will also enjoy more frequent connections and better scheduling to Lille, Marseille and Nice, and to European cities such as Berlin, Granada, Porto and Venice. Last but not least, Catania will be available year-round as from this winter, instead of only in high season.
Using the aircraft based in Bordeaux, easyJet can put out a top-quality, ever-improving offer from the capital of the Gironde region. By 2020, the orange network will boast almost 20% extra seats, with 3 million seats available in total, of which 1 million during the winter.
Growth sustained by the easyJet base opened in 2018 is also driving job creation with 200 direct jobs signed under French law in the past two years, including 36 new hires starting in summer 2020.
