09.12.09
easyJet is replacing the five Boeing 737s it operates from Belfast International Airport with five new Airbus 319s. Those travelling to Amsterdam and Luton today will take off in the first of the Airbus 319s. The other four will arrive over the winter, with a sixth 319 will operate from the Belfast base from the end of March next year.
The 319 - one of the aircraft in the Airbus 320 family - has 156 seats, compared with the 149 seats on the Boeing 737. easyJet say that it is one of the most environmentally efficient aircraft available.
Paul Simmons, the airline's regional general manager for the UK, said: 'We are delighted to have brought this new Airbus experience to Belfast. We know that the aircraft will be appreciated by both business and leisure travellers and that our position as Northern Ireland's favourite airline will be further consolidated.’
