easyJet launch Liverpool – Brussels flights
08.02.11
easyJet launched flights to Brussels from Liverpool Airport yesterday. It is the airline’s first service to Brussels from the UK, providing direct access to the Capital of the European Union. Fares on the route start from £23.99 (one-way, including taxes).
easyJet’s UK general manager, Paul Simmons was joined by Brian Simpson, MEP for the North West of England and Chairman of the European Parliament’s Transport Committee at the airport to launch the new six-times-weekly (Sun-Fri) service from Liverpool to Brussels.
Mr Simmons said: ‘By introducing a low-fares service to Brussels we are providing affordable access to the Capital of Europe. The launch of our first UK route to Brussels reflects our commitment to providing business travellers with the broadest choice of destinations at the lowest possible fares.’
Mr Simpson added: ‘I’m delighted that easyJet is starting flights between Liverpool and Brussels, and honoured that it chose Liverpool to launch its first UK service to the EU capital. This brings Merseyside and the wider North West region closer to Europe and will allow more choice for regular travellers like myself. I’m sure this new route will be a great success.’
