Airline launches new flights to popular Italian city from Edinburgh Airport

EASYJET is adding new services to Italy with a brand-new route from Edinburgh airport.

Daily flights to Milan Linate from the capital will launch on March 30, 2025 and operate throughout the year.

The flights went on sale on Wednesday and come in addition to easyJet’s existing service to Milan Malpensa.

It also joins other flight routes to popular Italian cities such as Naples, Sardinia and Venice as well as Sicily.

The airline has launched seven new routes from Scotland in the past month, including Zurich, Olbia, Dusseldorf, Marrakech and Enfidha from Edinburgh and Reus and Antalya from Glasgow.

easyJet’s UK country manager Ali Gayward said: “It’s fantastic to be able to offer our customers yet another new route from Edinburgh to Milan Linate, whether they’re looking for the ultimate retail therapy break in Europe’s fashion capital or need convenient access to the city centre for business.

“By growing our network in Scotland, we are continuing to provide greater connectivity for our customers who choose our flights and holidays for our unrivalled network, fantastic service and great value fares, and we look forward to welcoming them on board.”

Edinburgh Airport’s chief commercial officer Kate Sherry said: “It’s great to see easyJet fashion another top new route for passengers with direct flights to Milan Linate.

“It’s shaping up to be a bumper year in 2025 and these flights to Italy add to the wealth of options available to passengers from Edinburgh Airport.

“We look forward to continuing our work with easyJet and wish them every success with this new route.”
