Airline says October half-term bookings have been strong, particularly to Canary Islands
EasyJet expects to make a pretax loss of more than £1bn this year but said its recovery was under way, with a 400% surge in demand for winter sun breaks after the UK government relaxed travel restrictions.
The airline is adding 100,000 seats – thanks to the popularity of destinations such as Egypt, Turkey and the Canary Islands – and expects to fly up to 70% of 2019 levels in the three months to 31 December.
