These new bases and aircraft and jobs are
going to easy Europe, they won't necessarily be for flights to UK due to the complexities of Brexit.

Boris Johnson deadline is 7 days time and we still don't know what's happening.

I'd say that was possibly a relevant factor in their decision.
Many of us don't understand the relevance of Brexit. It's a shambles! That aside, if these new bases are going to be easyJet Europe, why are so many aircraft being re-transferred from the OE- register to G- ?? One would have expected it to be the other way. There must be significant cuts within EJU elsewhere to account for these transfers. It would suggest that within a smaller EJU fleet there will still be spare capacity for these new bases..
