EasyJet has launched new flights from Jersey to Birmingham, Bristol, and Newcastle.

The Bristol and Newcastle flights will start on 10 July and operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

The Birmingham service will run twice a week on Wednesdays and Sundays from 11 July.

"We know our customers can’t wait to be reunited with friends and family or have more opportunity to explore the UK so the new routes from Jersey should prove popular and will further strengthen our UK domestic network providing customers with even more choice." - Ali Gayward, easyJet's UK Country Manager.

The airline is also running flights to Belfast, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool, Gatwick, Luton, and Manchester this summer.

"This year continues to be a challenging one for our airline partners. This display of confidence in Jersey by easyJet is extremely welcome and will effectively extend our summer season into October, providing a much-needed boost for the Island’s economy, and giving more options for visitors and Islanders". - Senator Lyndon Farnham, Economic Development Minister.
