EasyJet already offers two direct routes from London Gatwick and Copenhagen Kastrup to Åre Östersund.

– We are happy and proud that easyJet has chosen to expand with another route to Åre Östersund, which is a positive sign for the airport and everyone involved in the tourism industry. In the winter season 2017/2018, we had an increase of a full 89 percent inbound travelers from England to our airport, compared to the season before, says Peter Fahlén, Airport Manager at Åre Östersund Airport.

– We are very pleased to launch the route between Bristol and Åre Östersund. We are confident that our passengers, especially ski enthusiasts, from Bristol will be delighted with the new destination. We also hope that those passengers flying to Bristol can enjoy the south-west of England and all that the region has to offer, says William Vet, Country Manager Benelux and Scandinavia at easyJet.
