Well whoever you work for you are a black belt in easyJet bashing. And whilst not wanting to wander too far from the thread topic of Duo I think you'll find EZY carried 1,996,790 passengers in March 2004 and that's more than BA. Which is quite something for what was laughed at as a joke in 1996.

As for profitability. Come off it. You and I and the whole industry knows that easyJet publishes a Winter and a Summer set of results. The Winter shows a small loss, the Summer a much bigger profit. Hence a year on year increasing Net profit.

So Spring time hysterics about 'easyJet losing money' are somewhat pointless.

Your view last year that the company was "Air Europe II and only had six months left to go" has proved to be somewhat wide of the mark. But don't let that put you off.

Cheers
