easyJet customers gearing up for the half-term getaway are set to jet off on over 13,000 flights across Europe throughout the week-long school break.

Up to half a million holidaymakers will be taking to the skies on 3,000 easyJet flights this weekend alone.

The airline is set to operate up to 8,000 flights to and from the UK during half-term as many families make the most of the break to catch some much-needed winter sun or hit the ski slopes.

Geneva is proving to be the most popular destination across the network this half-term, providing easy access to the Alps for snow sports lovers and the airline is offering even more choice from popular ski airports, with flying the UK to Grenoble up 11% compared to last year.

Meanwhile for sun-seekers, Tenerife and neighbouring Canary Island Lanzarote are proving to be among the top destinations, with ever-popular Spanish beach destinations Alicante and Malaga continuing to attract winter sun holidaymakers. 

Ali Gayward, easyJet's UK Country Manager, said:

"Every year customers continue to choose easyJet for our unrivalled network, choice and great value. With more than 13,000 flights taking off across Europe this half term to over 120 destinations across Europe and beyond, customers have an unrivalled choice for a break away in the sun or to hit the slopes, and we look forward to taking them away for a well-deserved holiday.”

About easyJet

easyJet is one of Europe’s largest airlines offering a unique and winning combination of the best route network connecting Europe's primary airports with great value fares and friendly service.

easyJet flies on more of Europe’s most popular routes than any other airline and carried more than 100 million passengers in 2024. The airline has over 340 aircraft flying on over 1000 routes to more than 160 airports across 35 countries. Over 300 million Europeans live within one hour's drive of an easyJet airport.

easyJet aims to be a good corporate citizen, employing people on local contracts in nine countries across Europe in full compliance with national laws and recognising their trade unions. The airline supports several local charities and has a corporate partnership with UNICEF which has raised over £17m for the most vulnerable children since it was established in 2012.

In 2022, easyJet published its roadmap to net zero by 2050. The roadmap, which also features a combination of fleet renewal, operational efficiencies, airspace modernisation, Sustainable Aviation Fuel and carbon removal technology, has set an ambitious interim carbon emissions intensity reduction target of 35% by 2035, validated by the Science-based targets initiative (SBTi). The airline’s ultimate aim is to fully transition its fleet to zero carbon emission technology, which it will achieve through a number of strategic partnerships including with Airbus, Rolls-Royce and GKN Aerospace Solutions. Since 2000, the airline has successfully reduced its carbon emissions per passenger, per kilometre by one-third and is the number 1 ESG rated airline in Europe by Sustainalytics, MSCI and CDP.

Innovation is in easyJet’s DNA – since launching nearly 30 years ago, easyJet changed the way people fly to the present day where the airline leads the industry in digital and operational innovations to make travel more easy and affordable for its passengers.
