'Fly away for £23' says easyJet as flights from new Birmingham base go on sale

Customers have been told they can escape to Belfast, Berlin or Malaga for under £40

Budget airline easyJet has put nearly 100,000 seats on sale for autumn 2024 - and claims holidaymakers can get away for as little as £23. The flights will take off from the firm's new base set to be opened at Birmingham Airport in March next year.

The airline last week announced 16 new routes from the base heading around Europe and to North Africa. New flights for autumn 2024 went on sale yesterday - including escapes to Belfast, Berlin and Malaga for under £40.

The airline said: "96,000 seats on flights from the new Birmingham base are now available to book between 2 September and 30 November 2024, including October half-term, from just £22.99."
