That the Parliament welcomes the announcement that easyJet will launch two new summer routes from Aberdeen International Airport to Barcelona and Mallorca; understands that the new routes will be launched in 2027, with flights to Barcelona due to launch on 31 March 2027 and flights to Mallorca on 3 May 2027 with both routes operating twice weekly; notes that the two new routes mark further growth for easyJet at Aberdeen International Airport, following the addition of services to Paris Charles de Gaulle and Belfast International, giving customers more opportunities to travel directly from their local airport; hopes that this can strengthen ties between Aberdeen and Spain; wishes both easyJet and Aberdeen International Airport continued success in their partnership together, and congratulates both ahead of the launch of these new routes.
