easyJet from Manchester to Tel Aviv and Birmingham to Belfast

With the success of its Luton operation (as reported by AERBT – ten a week from October), and much to the chagrin of incumbent Jet2.com, easyJet is to introduce an Airbus A319 Manchester – Tel Aviv service from 1 November, flown on a Thursday and on a day to be confirmed.  Jet2 operates on a Monday and Thursday with a 5hrs 15mins flight using a larger Boeing 757.

With Birmingham, the inaugural service will take off from Belfast International Airport on 22 October – initially a daily flight, and from 29 October will increase to two a day on weekdays, and one on Saturdays and Sundays.  The new route between Belfast and Birmingham reinforces its commitment to Northern Ireland,” the airline says. www.esyjet.com www.jet2.com
