Airlines Call For Greater Competition

From BBC Ceefax:

AIRLINES CALL FOR GREATER COMPETITION
Two budget airlines today called on the
aviation regulator to ensure there was
greater competition between airports.

Luton-based EasyJet and Ryanair claim
the British Airport Authority (BAA) is
operating a "monopoly" that is holding
back the industry.

"If Stansted, Gatwick and Heathrow were
free to compete openly gainst each
other you'd have a much better service
and much lower costs," said Ryanair.

Easy Jet said: "Customers don't get the
best deal when you have a monopoly."
