Guernsey-based airline Aurigny is delighted to announce the official launch of it's easyJet’s partnership through the innovative connections service called ‘Worldwide by easyJet’. ‘Worldwide by easyJet’ is the first global connections service by a European low fares airline. It means that customers can easily connect Aurigny’s London Gatwick service with easyJet flights around Europe, Israel, Jordan, and Morocco in one simple step. Using the ‘Worldwide’ product, on the easyJet website, customers will benefit from worry-free, protected connections. Should a passenger miss a connecting flight they will be transferred to the next available flight. A fee is included in the booking to protect your connection.

As part of the ‘Worldwide’ booking, customers can also take advantage of a hassle-free transfer of their luggage between the two flights. They simply pick up their hold luggage from the baggage carousel and take it over to the GatwickConnects desk, and they will check the customer into the next flight and take care of the bags. Hold luggage can be added to the easyJet legs of the journey as part of the ‘Worldwide’ booking process. To add hold luggage to the Aurigny legs of the journey, customers simply have to visit the Aurigny site and click on the ‘Manage’ icon.
