EasyJet flights on sale for spring 2010

Travellers making early holiday plans for spring 2010 can now book easyJet flights after the carrier introduced a new sales process.

The airline has changed the way it releases its seats for forthcoming seasons, meaning that customers can now book flights up to the end of June 2010.

Flights from Gatwick Airport, East Midlands Airport, Manchester Airport, Edinburgh Airport and other bases have been put on sale, with fares starting from £25 one-way for flights to Europe and £36 to north Africa.

Seats for the summer holiday period next year are expected to go on sale some time next month.

Paul Simmons, easyJet's regional general manager in the UK, said: "EasyJet is now releasing its seats for spring/summer 2010 earlier than ever to give our customers the opportunity to plan ahead and get our lowest possible prices for flights next year including over the Easter holiday period and the summer half term."

The airline serves some of Europe's most popular holiday destinations from the UK, offering flights to Paris, Barcelona, Rome and other cities.
