The route to Glasgow marks further expansion of easyJet services from Belfast City with the last year seeing the launch of new routes to London Gatwick, Bristol and Liverpool, which have proven popular with leisure and business travellers alike.

"This new route further strengthens our network in Belfast, having recently added services to London Gatwick, Liverpool and Bristol from Belfast City. Adding such choice has proved hugely popular with our customers and we are pleased to be offering further connectivity for those looking to explore and enjoy all the UK has to offer this winter.
"We are proud to be the largest airline in Belfast and Northern Ireland and remain committed to offering customers great value fares and more choice when they fly with us."

With flights up to three days a week, we are confident this route will be popular for both inbound and outbound travellers.
