The airline’s tour operation easyJet Holidays is offering early booking discounts of £45 for holiday of five nights or more.

Details of the spring programme coincided with the airline issuing a trading update.

Sample one-way fares range from £26.49 for Belfast-Paris and Manchester-Hamburg to £32.49 for Edinburgh-Amsterdam and Luton-Barcelona.

Announcing the spring flights, UK director Sophie Dekkers, said: “We’re always looking to make travel as easy as possible for our passengers and our mobile app is designed to do just that.

“Passengers can search and book flights in a matter of seconds, and when it comes to payment, using Apple Pay is the fastest way to checkout.

“Our app also enables passengers to get live flight tracking and updates direct from our operations control centre, download their boarding passes straight to their mobile phone – and for those travelling from Belfast, Bristol, Edinburgh, London Gatwick and Newcastle, you’ll be able to get real-time, personalised notifications that directly inform you when you need to go to the gate or which baggage reclaim belt to head for.”
