The low-cost airline is reviewing its agency arrangements as OMD's second three-year contract comes to an end.

EasyJet appointed OMD in 2003 following a competitive pitch against Carat. OMD currently handle EasyJet's pan-European business, which covers France, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands.

The pitch is being handled by head of brand Andy Berks. OMD will be invited to repitch.

A spokesperson said: "The contract has come to an end - it's good practice to see what else is in the market."

The review follows the recent appointment of former AOL Europe chief executive Dana Dunne as EasyJet's new chief commercial officer.

Dunne replaced Saad Hammad, who was responsible for appointing EasyJet's ad agency Publicis in 2008.
