I can't see EZY growing too much from BHX. FR seem pretty determined (with 10 aircraft!
) to make BHX their own.
To be honest, I would rather be in EZY's position as they look to dominate the North West market rather than the midlands - much bigger market.
I feel sorry for BE who are going to start feeling the pain when FR and EZY start to turn the key on two of BE's biggest bases (MAN&BHX).
If EZY&FR were to start competeing on BE European routes, could we see a BE retreat? The one thing we can guarantee is that BE have a VERY strong domestic market with the perfect sized aircraft. I don't think the two bog boys are going to be able to damage that too much.
VERY VERY interesting times ahead!
