In March 2021, Eurowings announced a major entry into the leisure business from the United Kingdom. Initially, they wanted to connect Manchester and Birmingham with Palma de Mallorca. After several postponements, the cancellation is now - at least for this year.

After Prime Minister Boris Johnson presented a timetable for exiting the corona measures, new bookings with many airlines soared. The restrictions were ended with some delay, but a controversial traffic light, against which various airlines, airports and tour operators had unsuccessfully sued, remained.

Eurowings wanted to pick up part of the UK travel cake and announced the start of non-stop flights between Birmingham or Manchester and Palma de Mallorca. The announcement remained, because the first flights were repeatedly postponed. Now the presence in the UK leisure business - at least for the current summer season 2021 - has been finally canceled.
