Low-cost airline easyJet is to launch its 60th route from Bristol Airport in December when it introduces a weekly service to Turin.
The airline, which operates around half of all scheduled flights from Bristol, will start the Turin link on December 11.
Flights will take place every Sunday over the autumn and winter, departing Bristol at 7am. The return flight from Turin is at 10.40am. Tickets start at £30.49 one way. It will be Bristol Airport’s nineth destination in Italy with seven of them operated by easyJet. 
EasyJet UK commercial manager Ali Gayward said: “This is an important milestone for easyJet and demonstrates how committed we are to providing our passengers in the South West and Wales with a vast selection of Europe’s best destinations on their doorstep.
“We have an unrivalled network with something for everyone whether travelling for business or leisure, on a city, ski or beach break.
“Turin is a beautiful city and one we’re very excited to start from Bristol Airport. Our flights will commence just in time for the ski season, so our passengers can take full advantage of the wealth of ski resorts in the Italian Alps or nearby French resorts, and will have easy access to some of Europe’s most popular ski destinations.”
Bristol Airport aviation director Shaun Browne added: “We are delighted with easyJet’s announcement adding another European destination to their route network.
“It is exciting news to have reached such a major milestone offering 60 direct destinations available from Bristol Airport. We look forward to working with easyJet in the future on further developing the routes and flights available for passengers in the region.”
