easyJet goes luxury with new collection offering Britons five-star accommodation, gourmet cuisine and more

Each property in the collection maintains a minimum 4.5 rating on both Google and Tripadvisor.

The initiative represents a significant shift for the budget airline's holiday division, which has traditionally focused on value-oriented packages. Travellers can now book these premium holidays for departures beginning in April 2026.

The collection introduces several premium features designed to enhance the travel experience. Passengers receive a generous 26kg baggage allowance with access to a dedicated bag drop service.

Airport procedures are streamlined through fast-track security lanes, priority boarding and pre-allocated seating. Upon arrival, travellers are transported to their accommodation via premium private transfers.

Throughout their stay, guests have access to specialised personnel trained to provide anticipatory service. The package also incorporates exclusive amenities ranging from Michelin-starred restaurants to premium hospitality services.

These enhancements aim to deliver a seamless journey from departure to return, distinguishing the Luxury Collection from standard holiday packages.

The portfolio showcases several distinguished properties across sought-after destinations. In Marrakech, The Sultana features art-filled suites, manicured gardens, heated swimming pools and an expansive rooftop terrace, alongside cocktail lounges, mezze dining and culinary workshops within the Medina.

Greece's Mykonos Grand Hotel & Resort occupies a prime coastal position, offering intimate wine experiences and bespoke meals in its signature cellar. Montenegro's One&Only Portonovi combines Adriatic elegance with Chenot spa treatments, gourmet cuisine and private dining options overlooking Boka Bay.

The Grand Ambassador in Santorini provides caldera vistas and private pool accommodation, exemplifying the collection's emphasis on exceptional locations and luxury amenities.
