easyJet adds three new routes from Bristol Airport for Summer 2026

Posted on by

easyJet is set to broaden its operations at Bristol Airport with the launch of three new summer destinations for next year, offering travellers more choice for both city breaks and sunshine holidays. Beginning in April, the airline will introduce direct flights to Sal in Cape Verde, Seville in Spain, and Bari in Italy, strengthening its position as the largest airline operating from the airport.

These new additions mean easyJet’s network from Bristol will reach nearly 90 destinations, supported by a fleet of 20 Airbus A320 and A320neo aircraft permanently based at the airport. The expansion reflects continued growth in demand from customers across the South West and Wales for more convenient short-haul and mid-haul travel options.

The schedule includes:

  • Bari – twice weekly from 18 April, connecting Bristol with one of southern Italy’s most distinctive coastal cities, known for its historic old town, Adriatic beaches, and access to the wider Puglia region.
  • Seville – twice weekly from 2 May, offering a new gateway to Andalusia’s cultural landmarks, vibrant food scene, and warm spring and summer climate.
  • Sal, Cape Verde – three times weekly from 1 May, opening up an increasingly popular destination for sunseekers looking for year-round warm weather, long beaches, and laid-back island resorts.

The introduction of these routes follows a period of ongoing expansion for easyJet at Bristol, including recently announced services to other Mediterranean and European cities. The airline says the new flights are designed to meet rising demand for both adventure-filled city escapes and relaxing holiday destinations.

Bristol Airport has welcomed the announcement, noting that the extended choice of destinations will offer passengers greater flexibility when planning trips for the 2026 summer season. The airport also highlighted the role these routes play in supporting regional connectivity and enhancing its long-term growth strategy.

With seat availability already open for booking, passengers can plan ahead for next summer, taking advantage of more options than ever before from their local airport.
