Easyjet has celebrated carrying 60 million passengers in a 12-month period for the first time.
The no-frills giant, based at Luton airport, made the breakthrough for the year to the end of May 2013.
More than 100 staff from Easyjet’s Hangar 89 headquarters helped to celebrate the milestone today (June 6) - see picture below.

the first time in one year.
“It’s testament to the hard work and dedication of everybody at Easyjet.
“Our success lies in the fact that we provide low fares and friendly service on modern, punctual aircraft across a network that offers a choice of over 600 routes.”
