For the Loco's it's just not going to happen.

Loco's don't like sector lengths of greater than 4 hours, the more sectors per day the more money they generate. The margin on economy trade across the atlantic are already wafer thin.

Really would you want to go on a 737/A319 7 hours without entertainment or food?

Go to a bucket operator and you can fly with BA/VS/CO etc for £250 with food and entertainment. If this deal goes through then prices across the pond will plummet and you'll still be flying with the aforementioned carriers and more.

If EZY goes across the pond I'd leave the company.

IT AIN'T GOING TO HAPPEN!
