Budget airline easyJet has put two new domestic flights on sale today from Bristol Airport, to meet increased demand for domestic travel.

The flights will provide people in Gloucestershire and the South West with more opportunities to reconnect with friends and family across the country or book a long-awaited break to explore more of the UK this summer.

Flights from Bristol to Jersey will take off from 10th July and operate three times a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, with fares starting at £14.99. Flights from Bristol to Aberdeen will take off from 9th July and operate four times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays with fares starting from £24.99.

Ali Gayward, UK country manager, said: "These news routes from Bristol should prove popular and will further strengthen our domestic network, providing customers with even more choice.

"We also know it is important to our customers to be reunited with loved ones overseas, so we continue to urge the UK government to add more countries to the Green list - which can be done safely - to make this possible."

Dave Lees, CEO of Bristol Airport, said: "We're delighted that easyJet are continuing to grow their schedule from Bristol Airport, adding two destinations to Jersey and Aberdeen from July 2021 to the network.

"EasyJet's continued expansion of their Bristol base is a real vote of confidence in the region, and ensures that customers living in the South West will enjoy even more choice when it comes to the routes available from their local airport.

"Providing our region with more opportunities to connect with their friends, family and loved ones, as well as for business and tourism, has never been more important.

"Customers can also be reassured that the health, safety and security measures in place in aviation remains our key priority to support opportunities to return to travelling and connecting with each other again."

All customers booking flights with easyJet benefit from flexible booking policies, which means they can book now with confidence that if their plans change, so can their booking.

They are able to change their flights this summer without a change fee, at any time up to two hours before departure, or request a voucher providing even more last-minute flexibility.
