Why does guvnor and one or two keep comparing BA with low cost operators. Yes they have to compete in Europe against them but in the wider world?

Also I read on teletext that although easy carried more pax this year their load figures actually went down to just over 82%.
Seeing as how easy and ryanair are expanding (more a/c more routes) it's not that remarkable that the number of pax they carry has gone up, but maybe their load fiqures have gone down.

I thought the low cost operators had to have fairly full a/c to make any money. All of the airlines seem to be doing the usual with their statistics.

Standing by to be informed otherwise
