EasyJet sees rebound in summer demand

Britain’s easyJet said the easing of travel restrictions had spurred demand for summer beach destinations such as Greece, Turkey and Spain, giving the airline cause for optimism after the shadow of Omicron lifts.

Its chief executive, Johan Lundgren, said bookings jumped in Britain when restrictions were reduced earlier this month and were boosted again when the government said testing requirements would end in February. [Reuters]
