easyJet named Best Short-Haul Airline at the Business Travel Awards Europe

easyJet, Europe’s leading airline, picked up the Best Short-Haul Airline Award at this year’s prestigious Business Travel Awards Europe which took place on 30 October.

A fixture of the business travel and hospitality calendar for more than 30 years, this year’s hotly contested awards were attended by nearly 1000 industry leaders. Recognising industry leadership, partnership and innovation, entries for the awards were received from companies, teams and individuals from across Europe, and were assessed by an independent panel of judges comprising 29 travel buyers and consultants.

Judges of the Business Travel Awards Europe praised the airline’s sustainability efforts, along with its partnership with Airbus, which allowed the airline to provide travellers with additional routes, specific fares, and a wider range of flight options in order to improve the traveller experience.

The airline won the Achievement in Sustainability award at the inaugural Business Travel Sustainability Awards earlier this year, which recognises companies that are leading the way in advancing sustainability within their own operations and for their business customers.

James Marchant, Head of Business Development for easyJet commented:

“It is a great honour for us to have been chosen as Best Short-Haul Airline at the Business Travel Awards Europe, which is widely recognised as the benchmark for business travel excellence. We know it is important for our business customers to connect in person with their colleagues and customers across Europe and that when they need to fly, they want the best value, a convenient schedule to Europe’s primary airports, and an airline that is serious about its commitment to achieving net zero carbon emissions.”

The airline has a well-established and attractive business passenger offering including a varied slot portfolio, leading punctuality and an unrivalled network of primary airports and carried over 11 million business passengers in 2022.

easyJet serves 21 UK airports offering 485 routes to 137 destinations from the UK across Europe, North Africa and the Middle East.
