The airline has added it's first flights to France and Spain with a daily service to Barcelona and a double daily service to Paris/Orly. These are excellent destinations for short city breaks, increasing flexibility and choice on the network.
Domestically we have added two new routes to Belfast and Newcastle. Belfast is being served double daily from Luton and also daily from Liverpool. Connections between Northern Ireland and the UK are obviously huge so this route will be significantly increased in the future with the potential for a base there.
