Good route to have back, always thought TUI would do it but good to see easyJet launch a new destination

Good news but the cynic in me wonders what it is replacing. :lol:

Sidenote. Will this be the longest flight in the easyjet network?

It's not replacing anything thankfully, I only noticed after making the announcement that there are gaps in the latest schedule on Wednesday and Saturday

Distance-wise, BFS-HRG will be the longest, however both HRG-GLA and HRG-BFS have a 6h 30m block time.

Interesting. I didn't even realise the A320 had such range capabilities tbh.

Would test my limits I think sitting for up to 6 hrs in an n Easyjet A320 but great to see nothing lost and a new Winter route. Just a shame Easyjet are building such a seasonality to alot of their GLA routes rather than year round.

It will be a NEO - easily capable. CEO, especially CFM powered would need to be weight restricted.
