EasyJet holidays expands into France and Germany
Move as part of pan-Europoean ambitions
France and Germany have become the latest source markets for easyJet holidays following expansion into Switzerland in August.
The budget airline’s in-house operator is offering 63 locations across Europe, flying from 16 French airports including Paris Charles-de-Galle, Paris-Orly, Nice Cote d’Azur and Lyon-Saint Exupery.
Germany will gain 47 destinations with flights from Berlin, Munich and Hamburg.
French and German holidaymakers can book package holidays departing from January 9, 2024.
Replicating the same business model within the UK, consumers have access to more than 3,000 hotels with holiday types including options for beach, luxury, family or adult-only available at various board options: all inclusive, half board, bed and breakfast and room only.
The company is offering 24/7 customer support with French and German speaking agents.
Customers will also have access to an online help centre for booking and management of holidays.
The announcement comes weeks after easyJet holidays announced a £122 million pre-tax profit and 221% growth in its full year 2023.
Chief executive Garry Wilson said: “Ever since we launched our business we had ambitions to be a pan-European tour operator, so we are thrilled to launch our easyJet holidays business in France and Germany, following our launch into Switzerland back in August.
“We’re currently the UK’s fastest growing tour operator and we’re looking forward to making our mark in Europe and helping our French and German customers find their perfect package holiday.”
