EasyJet releases seats earlier
EasyJet is changing the way in which it releases its seats for the coming seasons, making it possible to book earlier.
The airline today released its schedules for Spring 2010 from its bases across the UK regions, which means it is now possible to book flights from Belfast, Bristol, East Midlands, Liverpool and Newcastle up to the end of June 2010.
Flights from London and Scotland will go on sale within the next few weeks.
Seats for Summer 2010 are expected to go on sale next month.
Previously the airline launched its schedules in two six month blocks, winter and summer timetables.
It says the new process will enable passengers to better plan ahead and take advantage for the airline’s fantastic lowest fares.
must say i like the idea, i wonder will they annouce new routes when the seats go on sale, or will they wait until its closer to the time?
