But that is where you are entirely wrong I don't have an issue with Easyjet per se I have consistently said ( read my comments back if you need to) that they have a role to play. What I don't think is right is to keep flooding the market with 156 seats to squeeze others out then putting up prices. I think there are two groups of travellers

1)Those that are less worried about when they travel and are focused on price- Easyjet
2) Those that need greater frequency at convenient times and are prepared to pay more ( AN other ideally 50 or 76 seat operator)

Balancing 1+2 equals all travellers needs are catered for. If you only go for Easyjet the likely outcome is two flights a day at mixed times and that will certainly not meet the needs of category (2) travellers.

And I also agree it needs intervention from IOMG, and support to promote the island etc so its not all at the airlines doors so I really don't understand why I am so widely short of the mark which you all seem to think I am.
