The Fly Easy, one of Eastern Europe's fastest-growing online travel agencies, today announced record financial results for the fiscal year 2025, reporting a 140% year-over-year revenue increase and the successful processing of more than 2.3 million flight bookings across its platform.
The Manchester-based company, which began issuing airline tickets in 2026, attributed its early growth to a simple booking experience, transparent pricing and continued investment in its travel technology platform.
"2025 was a transformational year for The Fly Easy," said CEO and founder Andrei Mihailov in a prepared statement. "We more than doubled our transaction volume while maintaining the personal, human-first service that has defined our brand since day one. This growth validates our belief that travellers in this region deserve a platform built specifically for their needs — not a diluted version of a Western European product."
Key metrics disclosed by the company include strong booking growth and a rising repeat-customer rate, signalling growing loyalty among travellers who use the platform for flights, hotels and car hire.
The Fly Easy's expansion into new markets has been a central pillar of its growth strategy. The company continues to improve its multilingual experience and customer support while building its Manchester-based team.
Looking ahead, the company plans to grow its Manchester-based team across engineering, customer service and commercial roles. "We are focused on building a travel service people can understand and rely on," the leadership team said. "That's how you earn trust in travel."
The company's technology investments also played a significant role in its 2025 performance. The Fly Easy's AI price prediction tool, launched in January 2026, was piloted with a select group of users throughout Q4 2025 and helped early adopters save an average of 23% on their bookings. The tool analyses historical fare data across more than 800 airlines to recommend optimal booking windows, and has become a key differentiator in a crowded online travel agency market.
Industry analysts noted that The Fly Easy's growth comes at a time when the European online travel market is consolidating, with larger players like Booking Holdings and Expedia Group doubling down on established Western European markets. "There is a genuine gap in the market for a travel platform that understands the specific needs and price sensitivity of Central and Eastern European travellers," said Elena Vasquez, a travel industry analyst at Phocuswright. "The Fly Easy appears to be filling that gap effectively."
The company also highlighted its commitment to responsible growth, noting that it offset 100% of its operational carbon emissions in 2025 through verified offset programmes. The Fly Easy has pledged to achieve net-zero emissions across its entire value chain by 2030 and has committed 1% of annual revenue to sustainable aviation fuel research through its partnership with the Clean Skies for Tomorrow Coalition.
With strong momentum heading into 2026, The Fly Easy said it expects to surpass $600 million in gross booking value this year and continue expanding its presence across the CEE region. The company is also exploring entry into the Serbian and Croatian markets, with pilot programmes expected to launch in the second half of 2026.
