Air Europa gets ready for summer with more than 8.5 million seats available
The airline is offering nearly one million more seats than 2022 and is increasing the number of seats available on all its destinations
Air Europa faces the summer season with a significant increase in the number of seats it offers compared to last year's season. In response to the increase in demand and the good performance of the market, the company has made available more than 8.5 million seats in a fleet unified around the Boeing 787 Dreamliner and Boeing 737-800 models, with which it will cover more routes and a significant increase in frequencies. This is nearly one million more seats than those available in the same period of 2022, and is further evidence of the normalisation of Air Europa's business and growth strategy.
While all destinations have more possibilities for customers, the routes to Europe and long-haul flights concentrate more than 2.4 million and 2 million seats, respectively. It is also worth noting the significant increase in supply on operations to Spanish destinations, with more than 4 million seats on offer.
Some key destinations for the summer will also be reinforced with a significant increase in frequencies. In long-haul, flights to Asunción (Paraguay) and Córdoba (Argentina) will become daily, while the connection to Medellín will reach five flights a week.
Throughout the summer months, Air Europa will fly to the Greek island of Santorini with two weekly frequencies and is reactivating its international flights from Madrid to Alghero in Italy, Athens, and Tunisia for these dates. In addition, Air Europa, in application of its expansion plan driven by the recovery and growth momentum that began in 2022, is also reinforcing its summer schedule, starting in July and with two weekly frequencies, with a new route between New York and Santo Domingo.
The key to this increase in capacity is Air Europa's fleet, unified around Boeing models. Both the 787 and the 737-800 offer more seats and are a clear improvement in terms of efficiency and comfort. The Dreamliner is, in fact, the airline's hallmark and represents the most modern aircraft in its category, able to cut fuel consumption and emissions by 20%, as well as reducing noise impact by up to 60%.
