Summary of EZY Routes from BRS in peak-summer 2023

I've compared easyJets schedule from BRS during the second week of August 2023 compared to the same week in 2022. Here are the number of departures each week with the changes highlighted.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of destinations operating per week:
2022: 68
2023: 69 (+1)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of flights per week:
2022: 400
2023: 408 (+8 / +2%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of based aircraft:
2022: 17 (3x A319s, 12x A320s, 2x A321s)
2023: 17 (2x A319s, 13x A320s, 2x A321s)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Out of these 408x departures a week:

• 350x departures are operated by BRS based aircraft (-5 from 2022)
• 58x departures are operated by aircraft from other bases (+13 from 2022) - which are:

Operate some of the weekly flights:
7x Malaga based flights (that operate AGP-BRS-AMS-BRS-AGP)
7x Mallorca based flights (that operate PMI-BRS-ORY-BRS-PMI)
7x Edinburgh based flights
7x Faro based flights
5x Barcelona based flights
2x Lisbon based flights
1x Glasgow based flights
1x Paris CDG based flights
1x Amsterdam based flight

Operate all of the weekly flights:
all 6x Toulouse based flights

This is how easyJet have managed to increase the number of weekly flights without increasing the number of based aircraft

[Marko1]

Lisbon goes 9 weekly this winter and Porto goes 4 weekly. In late October Tenerife goes up to 2 daily and lanzarote daily

 

[Marko1]

Enfidhna and Milan has been added for the winter season too

 

[Severn]

Looking at the week of 3 July 2023, easyJet are scheduled to operate 407x departures to 69x destinations.
That’s 21x departures more (5% more) than the same week in July 2019.

 

[Marko1]

Early summer 24 now on sale

 

[Marko1]

Lots of extra Tenerife and Lanzarote flights have been added over the Xmas / new year period - now up to twice daily on selected days to both destinations .
Geneva also now increases to 7 flights every Sunday.

Copenhagen goes daily over the Xmas period

 

[Marko1]

A load of new routes were released for most uk departure points. However Bristol wasn’t one of them.

 

[MrFenner]

EZY peak S24 is now on sale via their app and website

Only thing I can notice is they may have dropped JMK (however still on sale via their holiday site)

Any new routes, frequencies etc will be announced over the coming months

 

[Marko1]

If I recall Mykonos didn’t go on sale straight away last year either. The release looks a carbon copy of this summers schedule at the moment

Marrakech doesn’t appear to be on sale for next summer either ( I thought it was meant to be year round ?)

 

[Marko1]

Is easyjet following a model led by jet2 whereby the holiday brand offers the full range of flights first then later released for flight only ? Looking at preveza and Mykonos in particular it appears may be that’s the case

It does look like that, i believe they do want to push their holiday operation.

 

[MrFenner]

Skiathos starts 1 May 2024 (Wed & Sun)

[Marko1]

Mykonos looks as so it’s gone

I wondered this but Lefkas holidays not available even though flights are... I'm keen to book

 

[Marko1]

Looking at the app it appears that extra frequencies are to be loaded on several routes for next summer - pula , enfidhna , larnaca , Tenerife plus more. Something to keep an eye on

 

[MrFenner]

MLA is back again! Begins 3 April (Wed&Fri)

https://x.com/seanm1997/status/1721647301620363428?s=46

 

[Marko1]

Lots going on with the schedule for next summer but at the moment Alicante has been reduced on a number of days to just once a day with the evening slot removed . Also at a casual glance at a week in July it appears there may be no based a319s next summer ( everything subject to change)

 

[Finger66]

With the A319s starting to well and truly be on their way out of the fleet now that is more than likely true

 

[Marko1]

All the extras I mentioned now on sale plus extra Alicante flights

Looking further - big increases across the board from Glasgow to Alicante to Berlin to Lisbon.
