EasyJet reopens its base at Alicante Airport for summer 2026
The airline is giving a massive boost to the Alicante summer schedule with 1.7 million seats on 22 European routes
EasyJet has officially reopened its seasonal base at Alicante-Elche Airport for the summer, offering 1.7 million seats across 22 routes and confirming its position as one of the airport’s biggest operators.
The British airline, which is the second largest carrier at Alicante in terms of passenger numbers, has returned for its third consecutive summer season with three aircraft based at the airport from April through to the end of October.
This year’s summer programme represents a modest 1% increase in seat capacity compared with summer 2025. While there are no new routes this season, easyJet has chosen to maintain all of last year’s connections, reflecting steady demand rather than rapid expansion.
The United Kingdom remains the airline’s main market from Alicante, with up to 12 direct routes. Among the busiest are services to London Gatwick, Manchester and Bristol, which together account for some of the highest seat availability this summer.
EasyJet is also continuing flights to Athens and Naples, two routes introduced last year that proved popular with passengers. Alongside these, travellers will once again be able to fly directly from Alicante to destinations including Amsterdam, Prague, Zurich and Nice.
In total, the airline’s summer network from Alicante includes flights to Amsterdam, Basel, Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Geneva, Glasgow, Lille, Liverpool, London Luton, London Southend, London Gatwick, Lyon, Manchester, Nantes, Naples, Newcastle, Nice, Prague, Southampton and Zurich.
EasyJet first launched its seasonal Alicante base in 2024 as part of a wider investment in Spain’s leisure travel market. Since then, the airline has steadily strengthened its presence at the Costa Blanca airport.
According to Aena figures, easyJet carried more than 2.23 million passengers through Alicante-Elche Airport in 2025, making it the airport’s second busiest airline behind Ryanair and ahead of competitors such as Vueling and Jet2.
The three aircraft based in Alicante this summer each have capacity for more than 180 passengers, underlining the scale of the operation.
Across Spain, EasyJet now has 20 based aircraft, including four in Barcelona, nine in Palma de Mallorca, four in Málaga and the three in Alicante, highlighting the country’s continued importance in the airline’s European network.
