easyJet has announced a new route from Birmingham to Milan in Italy, with seats on sale at easyJet.com and via the mobile app. The new route will take off from 26 June 2023 with departures up to three times a week on Mondays, Thursdays and Sundays.  

Boasting a rich history, Milan attracts historians and culture enthusiasts worldwide with sights including the city’s famous gothic cathedral and La Scala opera house.

Milan is also home to some of the greatest masterpieces of Italian art such as Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper which can be viewed at the Santa Maria delle Grazie Church and the city is also well renowned for its shopping and extensive choice of restaurants.

easyJet’s operations in Birmingham have seen continued growth, and the new route to Milan comes following a new service to Lisbon in Portugal which launched in October 2022.  The airline now serves customers in Birmingham and surrounding areas across 11 airports in the UK and Europe, connecting to city, ski, and beach destinations via Belfast, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Amsterdam, Geneva, Palma, Malaga, Faro, Nantes, Lisbon – and now Milan.

Ali Gayward, easyJet’s UK Country Manager said: “We are delighted to announce yet another new route from Birmingham. We’re focused on offering more choice and great value for our customers in the Midlands, whether they are travelling on their holidays, visiting friends and family or for business, and the addition of Milan to our Birmingham network provides yet another convenient direct connection and even greater choice for customers looking to book a great value trip to one of Europe’s most popular city destinations.” 

Tom Screen, aviation director for Birmingham Airport said: "We're thrilled easyJet is adding further connectivity between the second cities of Britain and Italy. I have no doubt these regular Milan Malpensa flights will be well subscribed by customers from both countries." 

easyJet serves 21 UK airports, offering over 463 routes to over 120 destinations from the UK to Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.
