A few points to consider though ;
1. Easy would probably like to go to North as the facilities are more modern, and they are harping on about "differential pricing" or rather the lack of it to the Competition Commission and the CAA.
2. North hasn't as many pier served stands as South - an advantage or disadvantage to their operation ?
3. What do BAA Gatwick plan for Pier 1 - it's been in their development plans for ages but nothing has happened probably due to South pax nos continuing to grow and I don't think thay can close it down and remain operational with the same pax numbers ?
4. The assumption that GB pax will migrate to Easy should be challenged ? If GB pax wanted to fly Easy they would in the first place. Personally I prefer GB / BA over Easy anytime and will continue that way.
5. BAA divests itself of the problem and leaves it up to the new owners when it sells Gatwick in 2009, against it's wishes but is forced to do so "as a result of Competition Commision findings".......
