Low-fare airline easyJet is to start four new routes out of Belfast this summer.

The no-frills carrier will operate daily services between Belfast and Paris Charles de Gaulle airport and five-times-a-week services between Belfast and Nice.

EasyJet is also starting five-times-a-week services between Belfast and the Spanish destinations of Malaga and Alicante.

All the new services will begin in late June.

In addition, easyJet is increasing daily services between Gatwick and Belfast to four and, due to high demand, starting a second daily service between Gatwick and Prague. Both begin on May 27.
