Looking for a sunny getaway from London? One of easyJet’s newest additions to its network is well worth considering. UK’s pocket-friendly carrier has launched direct flights to Sal, Cape Verde, from London Gatwick. Sal becomes the first sub-Saharan destination to join the airline’s network, and it’ll be served thrice a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. And before you wonder, it’ll be a year-round affair.
Located off the west coast of Africa, Cape Verde boasts a tropical climate and is an affordable alternative for those seeking a taste of the Caribbean in their getaway. Fares start from GBP 129.99 on the airline’s website and mobile application. Want a more rounded offering? How about picking up a package with easyJet Holidays? Those start as low as GBP 600 until October 30, 2026. The packages include flights, a hotel, and a 23kg baggage allowance, as well as transfers on beach holidays.
