re the discussions as to whether EZY or going cool on NCL or not, is there any relevance in the fact that we haven't got 319's yet? I suppose somebody has to be last, but is there any physical reason (route structure, physical limitations, etc) which makes 73's more suitable? Can't think of any, but the only other conclusion seems to be that we don't need the extra capacity as routes aren't pulling up any trees when compared to other bases.

re Transwede's comments on destinations, Venice has also seemed a likely choice to me and the north east in general seems to be well down on east european routes (Liverpool alone has over 30 flights a week to Poland!). HLX has already tried and dropped MUC and CGN, and personaly, can't see any other European business routes in the near future (much as I'd like to see ZRH, FRA, MAD, MXP).
