EasyJet Reopens Southend Airport Base, Creates 1,200 Jobs
EasyJet has officially launched a new base at London Southend Airport, marking a significant expansion that includes the introduction of 140 new roles for pilots and cabin crew, as well as an overall creation of approximately 1,200 jobs in the region. The airline will operate 122 weekly flights to various European and North African destinations, more than doubling its offerings from last year. This expansion, which includes three stationed A320neo aircraft, comes after EasyJet's previous cessation of operations at Southend during the pandemic in September 2020. With the summer travel season approaching, EasyJet anticipates record demand and is prepared to cater to this with additional flights and package holidays available. The move is also seen as a boost to the local economy, with support from aviation officials highlighting the importance of connectivity and job creation. EasyJet's expansion strategy aligns with its goal to maintain its position as the UK's largest leisure airline, responding to increased consumer demand for travel.
