EasyJet has introduced a new route from Bristol Airport to Las Palmas in Gran Canaria.

From 28 September through Autumn and Winter, passengers from across the South West and Wales will be able to take advantage of Gran Canaria’s winter sun and can fly directly to Las Palmas once a week with easyJet.

Flights from Bristol to Las Palmas went on sale on Friday. Ali Gayward, easyJet's UK Commercial Manager, said: "We're delighted to be adding Las Palmas to our network from Bristol Airport.

“Gran Canaria has a bit of everything – from enduring beaches to the sand dunes in Maspalomas, the shopping in Las Palmas to the night time entertainment in Playa del Ingles. We are confident this will be a popular choice for families and holidaymakers over the winter season.

"EasyJet now flies to 59 destinations from Bristol Airport meaning our passengers have a great choice of some of Europe's best city, ski, summer and winter destinations to choose from, including Amsterdam, Innsbruck, Porto and Reykjavik in Iceland."

Shaun Browne, Aviation Director at Bristol Airport said: "We are delighted to welcome this additional route to the easyJet network. This will offer customers flights to all of the four key Canary Islands and further extends the choice of destinations available. We look forward to working with easyJet on developing the route network available from Bristol Airport."
