Passengers travelling on easyJet have been told a major change will improve their choice.
The budget airline has announced it will start offering six new routes to travellers. This includes two connections between the UK and Morocco. This month, easyJet officially opened its new three-aircraft base in Marrakech, Morocco, a development expected to generate approximately 100 new jobs. This coincided with the unveiling of six new routes to Morocco for next winter.
These include Newcastle to Marrakech, launching in November, and Birmingham to Agadir. The additions bring the total number of routes to Morocco to 58, including 30 to Marrakech.
Kenton Jarvis, CEO of easyJet, said: “We couldn’t be happier to launch our base in Morocco for our 20th year of operations in the country and to mark the milestone of 20 million passengers flown over that time.
“This is a milestone for our development in the region, providing more travel opportunities than ever before for our airline and holidays [for] customers, while contributing to the local economy through tourism and the jobs we are creating.”
