easyJet is returning to Salerno Costa d'Amalfi Airport with three international connections: London Gatwick, Paris Orly and Basel. The announcement links the routes to improved direct access to the Amalfi Coast, Cilento and the wider province of Salerno from the United Kingdom, France and Switzerland.

Paris Orly leads the announcement

Paris Orly is the most detailed of the three routes. It is scheduled to begin on 30 April 2027, with up to three weekly frequencies.

Paris was already available for booking when the announcement was published, making it the first practical option for travelers planning ahead from France.

London Gatwick and Basel to follow

London Gatwick and Basel were expected to become bookable in the following weeks. Both are also planned for up to three weekly frequencies.

Exact launch dates, operating calendars and final frequencies for London Gatwick and Basel were not specified beyond that three-weekly expectation. The sources also do not establish whether all three routes will operate year-round or only during selected seasonal periods.

Travelers should therefore treat London and Basel as announced but not yet fully ticketed, and check availability before making fixed plans.

A return, not a first arrival

The announcement represents a return rather than an entirely new airport market for easyJet. The airline previously launched Salerno services in July 2024, including London Gatwick and Basel, with London operating from 13 July and Basel from 12 July.

That history matters for readers: Salerno has already handled easyJet international operations, while the current plan re-establishes London and Basel alongside Paris.

Connected to a tourism promotion project

The routes are connected to the "Salerno&Cilento: Essenza Mediterranea" project promoted by the Salerno Chamber of Commerce.

The Chamber of Commerce investment is reported as 1.5 million euros over two years for destination marketing in foreign markets. The stated purpose is to support direct access to the Amalfi Coast, Cilento and the province of Salerno from the three markets served.

What travelers should verify before booking

Because only Paris had a confirmed start date and booking status at the time of publication, readers should confirm the rest directly:

  • Check whether London Gatwick and Basel have opened for sale
  • Confirm the operating days and seasonal calendar for each route
  • Confirm frequency, as "up to three weekly" leaves room for fewer flights in some periods

easyJet's official timetable page provides route listings by origin airport and destination, including the "Costiera Amalfitana Salerno, Naples" airport entry. Since that page is dynamic, it is the appropriate place to verify the current schedule rather than relying only on the announcement.

Growth welcomed, infrastructure questioned

Local labor representatives welcomed airport growth but warned that rail, road, metro and wider transport infrastructure must keep pace with the expansion.

For visitors, the practical point is simple: Salerno Costa d'Amalfi Airport is growing as an international gateway, but onward travel conditions may still be developing. Allow flexibility in arrival planning until schedules and ground connections stabilize around the new routes.
