Gatwick airport is set to be the next battleground for no-frills airlines, with plans by Ryanair and bmibaby to challenge easyJet's dominance.

Ryanair has so far restricted operations at London's second biggest airport due to high landing charges.

But industry sources say Europe's largest budget airline recently applied for two runway slots, according to the Sunday Times.
Well of course Ryanair has operated out of Gatwick for years, to Dublin. It was one of their earlier routes. Currently operating at 6 round trips a day.

So they apply for another two slots and some journalist portrays this as The End Of Easyjet As We Know It. Come on !
