Would it happen? Unlikely in the short term, but medium term who knows.
Doubt they’d be interested in venturing outside of the U.K. they’re confident there’s plenty more growth to be had here. Perhaps when that’s exhausted.. That said, they seem to have tapped into a very British market and exploited that all-in-one holiday booking and customer focus that got lost in the low-cost era. They have done exceptionally well at this.
