Jetting off to Europe

Jetting off to Europe for a bargain break is now easier than ever thanks to the launch of new flights by Easyjet.

Tapping into the recent popularity of destinations such as Croatia, France and Italy, the low cost airline has announced a number of additional routes which are sure to appeal to those looking to book a mini break or short trip abroad.

Following the recent confirmation of new flights to the Croatian city of Rijeka, Easyjet will now fly to Croatia's second largest city Split from May 2006, giving travellers greater access to the fascinating country and its islands.

The delights of France and Italy are even more accessible with the creation of new routes to Ajaccio in Corsica, La Rouchelle, Toulouse and Bordeaux, encouraging people to extend their European travels without breaking the bank.

Future plans include flights to Alicante, to target the growing number of Brits exploring Spain, leaving from Edinburgh airport.
