EasyJet Europe Airline GmbH (trading as easyJet) is a European low-cost airline founded in 2017 and based in Vienna, Austria.
It operates scheduled flights across Europe and is a subsidiary of EasyJet plc.
The airline was established on 18 July 2017 and started operations on 20 July 2017, with the first flight being an Airbus A320 (re-registered as OE-IVA, previously G-EZPA) flying from London Luton Airport to Vienna International Airport.
[1] The airline was established following the UK referendum vote to leave the European Union and the airline's decision to obtain an Air Operator's Certificate (AOC) in another EU member state in order to continue operating flights across and within European countries after the UK leaves the EU.
