Gatwick Airport (LGW) and easyJet have celebrated ten years of operation. In the decade since the Barcelona inaugural the Luton-based carrier has overtaken both British Airways and Virgin Atlantic as the largest operator out of the South London airport.
easyJet now operates 50 aircraft flying around 300 flights a day to and from Gatwick, with a choice of 94 destinations throughout Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Since first taking off at LGW, easyJet has flown more than 70m passengers from the airport. Last Friday (24 February) it celebrated the milestone with commemorative gifts and entertainment for passengers checking in for flights throughout the morning.
Last year alone easyJet added more than 10 new routes from Gatwick including Aberdeen, Amman, Bari, Bologna, Catania, Fuerteventura, Izmir, Seville, Verona and Zagreb. www.easyjet.com
