easyJet has said
that it will put more flights on sale to the Canary Islands in response to an
increase in demand for flights and holidays.
easyJet will be putting additional flights on sale across its routes to the islands from London Gatwick, London Luton, Bristol, Manchester, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Glasgow and Belfast. With its year-round sunshine, beautiful long beaches and range of hotels, the Canary Islands are a great option for a winter sun getaway. Over 180,000 additional seats to the Canary Islands will now be available up to the end of March 2021, with fares from £22.99, one way per person, including taxes.
The move comes after the UK government announced that the Islands have been added to the list of quarantine exempt destinations for British travellers. Holidays are available to book now with packages available from £289 per person.

‘This will mean
many of our customers will be able to take a winter sun break to these popular
islands or reschedule a holiday that they’ve been unable to take this summer as
a result of the last minute changes to quarantine restrictions.
‘Since the
government’s announcement last night we’ve already seen a surge of demand for
flights and holidays to the Canary Islands – we’ve seen a 500% increase day on
day on searches – so we know that there is customer demand, they want to travel
and this demonstrates they will do so when travel restrictions are relaxed. In
response to the demand we’re seeing from our customers we’re putting additional
flights on sale from today well as launching five new routes to the Canary
Islands from our airports across the UK.
