EasyJet has started flying to Nuremberg Albrecht Dürer Airport, with the first arrival from Manchester on 2 November 2026. The inaugural flight was welcomed on the apron with a traditional water cannon salute. The expansion introduces a mix of seasonal winter flights tailored around Nuremberg’s Christmas market and major trade fairs, alongside one year-round connection.
The Manchester to Nuremberg route operates twice weekly on Mondays and Fridays until New Year’s Day. London Gatwick to Nuremberg starts on 19 November with 2 to 4 weekly flights year-round. London Luton to Nuremberg starts on 23 November with 2 to 3 weekly flights until New Year. Milan Malpensa to Nuremberg starts on 27 November with twice weekly flights.
The new routes enhance international connectivity for the Nuremberg metropolitan region, boosting tourism, business and trade fair access. The Manchester-Nuremberg corridor had previously been without a direct carrier since Ryanair last operated the route in 2019. EasyJet holidays has integrated local Nuremberg hotels into its inbound portfolio to offer complete flight-and-hotel packages.
