Come on people look at the whole picture before you make yourselves look daft and this post is not aimed at anyone in particular.
Why do you think that every low cost operator and charter airline loses money by the wheelbarrow full in a 6 month period in the winter months?
I would guess that every charter or low cost airline operating in the UK would if they could just park up for the winter and not fly if it meant that they would break even for those months.
It is supply and demand, to much supply and not enough demand for seats.
It will not cost Jet2 a great deal more in parking in EWR than in the UK, the only extra will be the crew costs in EWR. Now for the lost revenue, as l said previously what revenue, you only have to look mid week in the winter at MAN and LGW to see lines of aircraft parked for a number of days at a time.
My own airline in the winter with a fleet of 32 aircraft had on some days only 7 or 8 flying, so you can see where l am coming from and for info Easyjets loss was over £40 million for the last winter 6 month period.
