easyJet, the number one airline in Bristol, has today announced the launch of three new routes for summer 2026 from Bristol Airport, with seats on sale today.
easyJet’s expansion into sub-Saharan Africa continues as it adds its third route from the UK to Sal in Cape Verde, with a new route from Bristol joining existing services from London Gatwick and Manchester. Flights from Bristol will take off from 1 May 2026 and operate on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays
easyJet is also now offering new routes from Bristol to Bari, with flights starting from 18 April 2026, and to Seville from 2 May 2026. Both will operate twice weekly on Tuesdays and Saturdays, offering more city-break options for holidaymakers in the South West seeking a mix of history, culture, and charm.
In addition, easyJet holidays has launched package holidays on the new routes, each including return flights and hotel. All bookings benefit from easyJet holiday’s Ultimate Flexibility which offers the freedom to change a booking, a refund guarantee, and best price guarantee.
These new routes come following easyJet’s recent announcement that it will also start flying from Bristol to Spanish city Reus and Thessaloniki in Greece from June 2026.
Furthermore, easyJet became the only airline directly connecting Bristol with Munich and Zurich when flights took off in October, with another winter route to Vienna starting operation on 21 November followed by Verona in December.
Kevin Doyle, easyJet UK Country Manager, said:
“In our 30th year, we’re still as committed as ever to making travel easy and affordable for our customers in the UK.
“With three new routes and package holidays now available to book from Bristol Airport for next summer, in addition to two we announced last month, we’re continuing to provide our customers in the South West with even more choice and connectivity at fantastic fares, and we look forward to welcoming them onboard.”
Rupert Lawrie, Commercial Director at Bristol Airport, said:
“We are delighted to see easyJet continue to grow its network from Bristol. Seville is a fantastic new destination in our route network. Beyond being a vibrant and culturally rich city-break, the region is of particular significance to our business travellers, and in particular the aerospace sector in the West of England, due to the strong ties with Airbus’ Seville hub and the Andalusian aerospace cluster.
“Bari is also an exciting new route for customers, as Bristol Airport will be the only English airport outside of London to offer direct flights to this stunning region of Italy. We anticipate strong demand for inbound customers visiting the South West, supporting our region’s economy.
“And Cape Verde is another excellent holiday hotspot joining our summer schedule, providing even more choice for customers seeking year-round sunshine and a unique island experience.
“These additions come alongside the launch of Vienna on 21 November and Verona in December, further enhancing the breadth of destinations available from Bristol. We look forward to continuing our strong partnership with easyJet, as we offer more routes and improved services for those travelling from Bristol Airport.”
