A couple have criticised airline Easyjet after it announced it would be cancelling its route to Belfast from East Midlands Airport. One passenger said the move the means they may now have to travel by ferry.
David Smith regularly used the service to visit his wife who worked in the Northern Ireland capital. The pair would then often travel back on the same route in between stays at home in Shepshed, Leicestershire, but now their plans have been changed, reports Leicestershire Live.
That’s after Easyjet confirmed it would no longer be running the service after March 25.
