Passengers at London Gatwick now have a choice of 50 long-haul flight destinations.

It comes as Gatwick landed a new Ethiopian Airlines service to Addis Ababa.

The new route will operate three times per week from 21 November.

It is Gatwick Airport’s first direct flight to the Ethiopian capital since 2006.

It becomes the latest of several new long-haul flight services to start before the end of this year.

The airport now offers more than 80% of its pre-Covid long-haul flight routes.

Following Norse Atlantic launching five new US routes earlier this year, the airline is due to start operating to Miami and Boston in September.

It then adds Kingston, Montego Bay and Bridgetown in October.

British Airways will start flying between London Gatwick and Accra, Ghana in October, after adding Las Vegas and Vancouver earlier this year.

Air Mauritius is also due to take off in October, with daily Mauritius flights.

London Gatwick’s long-haul destinations now span the US, Canada, the Caribbean, Africa, Asia and the Middle East.

Jonathan Pollard, CCO, London Gatwick said: “Returning to 50 long-haul routes is a milestone moment.”

“We’re proud to provide connections to an increasing range of destinations around the world.

London Gatwick’s long-haul flight network is crucial for economic opportunities across the region.”
