Lisbon
Flights to the Portuguese capital will recommence on March 29th 2026 and will operate every Wednesday and Sunday throughout the summer season.
This route was previously launched by easyJet Europe in June 2023 and operated year round until the end of October 2024 before being suspended by the airline, in 2026 flights will be operated by an easyJet UK aircraft.
As of the time of writing easyJet will be the only airline serving Lisbon from Glasgow, as was the case when they last operated this route.
Malta
Flights to Malta will commence operations on Tuesday 4th August and will operate on Tuesdays and Fridays until the end of the summer season.
Although this route is well served from Glasgow with both Jet2 and Ryanair operating four weekly flights between them, this will be the first time that easyJet will fly the route, and is also the airlines only service to Malta from Scotland.
Based on current schedules the airlines service on Tuesdays will operate the same day as Ryanair, while its Friday service will operate without competition.
Pisa
Pisa is the second new destination added to Glasgow Airports destination map with the introduction of a twice weekly service from August 1st operating on Tuesday and Saturday.
The airline does not currently operate Pisa from any other Scottish airport, and as previously mentioned no other airline currently offers this service from Glasgow Airport.
Sharm el Sheikh
easyJet continues to double down on its Egyptian services from Glasgow with the introduction of a twice weekly service to Sharm el Sheikh from August 1st with flights operating Wednesday and Saturday.
This service compliments the airlines successful Glasgow to Hurghada route which already operates year round, making Glasgow host to easyJets only year round service to Egypt from Scotland.
