In 1997, easyJet was looking for its second UK base.
The airline had begun operations from Luton Airport in November 1995, but it was looking for a location to serve the North of England. Many people would have expected the now-ubiquitous airline to set up shop at Manchester.
However, the airline chose Liverpool Airport as its next base. On Monday (October 31), the airport marked 25 years of easyJet flights.
