easyJet offers ‘Ticket to Ride’ to celebrate Liverpool launch

GIBRALTAR (GibChronicle) Famed as the location of the real John and Yoko’s wedding more than 40 years ago, Gibraltar has strong links with Liverpool thanks to its Beatles connection that was immortalised in the lyrics of ‘The Ballad of John and Yoko’ in 1969. So it was not all that surprising that Lennon and Ono look-a-likes Alan James and Veninia Johnson were at Liverpool's John Lennon Airport (what else?) to launch the airline’s first flight from Liverpool to Gibraltar. The new route will provide Gibraltar travellers with a three-times-weekly service to Liverpool for as little as £27.99 (one-way, including taxes).>To celebrate the launch of its new route, easyJet is offering free return flights from Gibraltar to Liverpool to five local couples who share their wedding anniversary date with the famous pair. The first five couples to provide proof that they were married on 20 March will receive complimentary return flights to Liverpool with the low-fares airline.

Ali Gayward, UK commercial manager at easyJet, comments: “This is a great opportunity for people in Gibraltar to take advantage of our brand new route to Liverpool and enjoy all that the city and the North West of England has to offer.

“We’re calling for anyone who shares the wedding anniversary date of John and Yoko to contact us for their chance to scoop this fantastic prize.”

Couples wishing to enter easyJet’s competition need to email a copy of their marriage certificate to: easyjet@beattiegroup.com by 30 April 2011.
