With reference to flyzen's post

Assuming flyzen is correct (and I have no reason to believe otherwise), could I suggest pausing the discussion with respect to Ryanair at Basel until Wed lunchtime ? There is the possibility that Ryanair somehow had advance notice that EasyJet would announce plans at Basel on Wednesday and act accordingly on Tuesday to gain at least some sort of publicity.
