easyJet, the UK’s largest airline, today announced its plans to expand to Israel this winter with the launch of a new six times weekly service, between London Luton and Tel Aviv.
easyJet is the first low-fares airline to operate between London and Tel Aviv, and with prices from just £71.99 one way, easyJet fares are half that of traditional airlines operating the route. Giving travellers the opportunity to experience this historic destination and explore the chic and unique cosmopolitan city of Tel Aviv.
In addition the airline will further expand its operations in Morocco with a new twice weekly service between London Gatwick and Agadir.

Andy Harrison, easyJet’s chief executive, commented:
“This is a major breakthrough. For the first time the traveling public in the London area has the choice between a high cost traditional airline and a low-cost alternative.”
“We look forward to bringing our unique blend of low fares with friendly service to a whole new market.”
The addition of these routes takes the total number of new easyJet services to be introduced in the coming year to 23.
Seats will be on sale later today at www.easyJet.com
