From June 2nd, easyJet will offer new direct connections between the United Kingdom and Madeira, connecting Luton to Funchal twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays.

Following the entry of easyJet into Cape Verde, with the start of flights between Lisbon and Porto to the island of Sal in October, it will also be possible to fly between Cape Verde and the United Kingdom, namely connecting the island of Sal and Gatwick Airport, from March 31, 2025, with a frequency of 3 flights per week, on Wednesdays and Fridays. In the months of July and August, this route will have 2 weekly flights.

It is worth remembering that easyJet's first "low cost" flight to Cape Verde from Portugal took place on October 29, connecting Lisbon to the island of Sal, followed by the Porto/Sal connection the following day.

José Lopes, General Director of easyJet Portugal, states: “The opening of new routes is always a significant step and reflective of our commitment to accessibility and expanding the most accessible and convenient travel options for our passengers. We are excited to offer direct connections that reflect the growth in demand for international travel and enable connections between Portugal and more attractive destinations.”
