New EasyJet flights to Corsica

07 January 2009

easyJet has added two new flights to Bastia in Corsica: a new service from Bristol will commence in May whilst a Manchester service starts on 9th August.

The new regional departures make the island more accessible for clients in the south west and north west and will more than double the airline’s capacity to Corsica compared with last year. Flight seats can be booked directly with easyJet, with one-way fares available from £22.99 per person from Bristol and £23.07 from Manchester, including taxes and charges. The routes add to the airline’s other services to Corsica: Gatwick to Bastia and Gatwick-Ajaccio.

To enable holidaymakers to take advantage of these cheap flights to Corsica, specialist tour operator Corsican Places is offering self-catering properties and hotels on an accommodation-only basis. The company offers the widest choice of over 100 properties across the island including villas with pools, citadel apartments, family-friendly residences and character hotels.

Hotel prices start from £245 per person based on 7 nights bed & breakfast at either Hotel Cyrnea, Calvi or Hotel de la Corniche, near Miomo, both 2 star. Apartments start from £459 (£229.50 per person) based on 7 nights and two sharing (Apartment A Moresca in Algajola & 1 bed Sognu di Rena in Moriani Plage). Accommodation-only bookings through Corsican Places also include a welcome pack, all bed linen and towels. Car-hire can also be booked through the operator. See more information on accommodation-only.
