Easyjet to resume flights to Sharm el Sheikh

MANCHESTER Easyjet will resume flights to Sharm el Sheikh in Egypt for the first time since November 2015.

Following the recent lifting of government safety restrictions on UK flights to Sharm el Sheikh, the airline will offer two flights a week to the destination commencing on 7 June from Manchester and 30 September from London Gatwick.

Continuing a period of expansion at Manchester, in addition to Sharm el Sheikh, Easyjet has also announced a further two new routes from Manchester to Rome and Menorca.

"With Egypt proving popular in the North West, the airline is also extending its winter flights to Hurghada to operate year-round three times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Sundays with the first flight departing on 1 June", Easyjet said.
