easyJet has announced the launch of two new Spanish routes for next summer, with flights and holidays now on sale to Reus from London Gatwick and to Ibiza from the airline's newest base, London Southend.
The inaugural flight to Ibiza from London Southend will take off for the first time on 29 April 2026, with twice-weekly departures on Wednesdays and Saturdays. With another direct connection to this popular Balearic island, customers now have the opportunity to explore cultural sites such as historic Dalt Vila, relax along the island’s stunning coastline, or enjoy Ibiza’s renowned culinary scene and famous nightlife.
Since the opening of easyJet’s newest base at London Southend, the airline now offers an unrivalled network of 25 routes across the UK, Europe and North Africa, reinforcing the airport’s position as a key gateway for Essex and London while driving growth and connectivity.
Meanwhile, easyJet’s new service to Reus from London Gatwick will start on 22 June 2026, providing three flights a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Famous as the birthplace of the legendary architect Antoni Gaudí, known for designing Barcelona's iconic Sagrada Família, Reus offers a blend of modernist architecture, cultural landmarks, and culinary highlights. As the largest airline at London Gatwick with up to 410 flights a day, easyJet now offers over 115 routes from the airport, offering an unrivalled range of both beach and city destinations to Europe's primary airports and beyond.
Whether exploring the nearby seaside towns of Tarragona and Sitges from Reus or basking in Ibiza’s crystal-clear waters, both Spanish destinations offer something for everyone.
The announcement comes following easyJet’s launch of 18 new routes for summer 2026 from eight UK airports, including services to Cape Verde from Bristol, Sharm El Sheikh from Glasgow and Naples from Liverpool.
easyJet holidays will also offer packages to the Spanish hotspots, with flights, hotel, transfers and 23kg luggage included. All holidays can be booked with a low deposit of £60 per person and come with Ultimate Flexibility guarantees, including the freedom to change the booking up to 28 days before departure.
