Liverpool has easyJet's busiest route
17.07.09
Liverpool Airport has the busiest route in easyJet’s 437-route network, the Post reports. Its Belfast link operates 12 times each way per day. The route has just passed its 10th anniversary, with more than 4.8 million passengers taking the low cost airline’s route, which carries more passengers than any other from the airport.
Carly Brear, easyJet UK commercial manager, told the newspaper: ‘The Liverpool to Belfast route is one of the shortest but is the busiest of all our routes. It was used by business travellers when it was launched a decade ago, however, Belfast has established itself as a popular tourist destination since then and we are seeing increasing numbers of leisure travellers. There is also a large Northern Irish community in the North West which regularly uses the flights to visit friends and relatives.’
Liverpool Airport spokesman Robin Tudor said: ‘The success of this route has been phenomenal. Soon after starting it became the airport’s most popular service. It serves so many markets, including business, football traffic for all four Premier League teams in both Liverpool and Manchester, the growing student population in the north west and of course for visiting friends and families.’
