A UK budget airline has added new routes and destinations to their summer itinerary with prices of return flights only costing around £50 for British holidaymakers

A popular UK budget airline has announced a £50 summer flight sale from London airports with the launch of new travel destinations.

Wizz Air has announced it will take holidaymakers to 77 destinations from the UK this summer – with return prices starting as low as £50 per person.

The budget carrier will run more than 104 routes from the UK, with 69 routes from Luton Airport and 20 from Gatwick.

Luton will now carry passengers to Bilbao, Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Alicante and Seville.

It will also continue to run daily flights to Madrid and two daily services to Barcelona.

The airline will also serve seven destinations in Greece from London, including Athens, Mykonos and Crete.

Flights between London and destinations in Europe between June and September are currently on sale for bargain prices.

A return flight from London Luton to Kosice in Slovakia in June cost £42.98 per person and a return flight to Lyon in September is on sale for £31.98.

These prices do not include cabin bags or hold luggage.

Wizz Air UK managing director Yvonne Moynihan said: “ This summer, our customers told us exactly what they wanted – more sunshine, more choice and unbeatable value – and we listened.

“We’re stepping up while others step back, launching more routes, more flights and even better prices to Europe’s most loved destinations.

“From buzzing Spanish cities to iconic Greek escapes, we’re delivering the routes people actually want, at the best prices in the market.”
