GB Airways summer routes go on sale via easyJet website
Routes operated by GB Airways for summer 2008 have become available to book online at easyJet’s website.
A total of 32 routes include Sharm El Sheikh, the Canary Islands, Corfu, the Greek Islands and Turkey.
The move follows British Airways terminating the sale of GB Airways flights from March 30 onwards after easyJet acquired the BA franchise partner last October.
“In order to continue to provide competition and choice for customers, easyJet has entered into a code-share agreement and can offer the GB Airways routes through easyJet.com,” a statement said.
EasyJet now offers 66 routes from Gatwick and a further six from Manchester. The GB Airways Heathrow operation is expected to terminate at the end of March.
It is expected that GB Airways will continue to operate all routes under the BA brand until March 29.
After this, subject to regulatory approval, the GB flights will operate under the easyJet brand and all customers who have booked to travel with GB Airways next summer will be given the choice of flying with easyJet at the same times or receive a refund.
By winter 2008, GB Airways will be fully integrated into the easyJet business model subject to regulatory clearance, according to the budget airline.
