Easyjet making less than £1 per passenger over full year, FR making over £9 per passenger based on half years results.

Misleading

If you are going to quote statistics use like for like otherwise they are worse than useless.

On this basis for the last annual results I can reword your statement as follows:

"Easyjet making less than £1 per passenger, FR making a loss of around €3 per passenger based on latest available annual results."

See I can put a completely different slant on results.

Sir Charles Dilke said in October 1891 that ".....false statements might be arranged according to their degree under three heads, fibs, lies, and statistics". This is thought to be the basis for the famous quote "lies, damned lies and statistics" often incorrectly attributed to Mark Twain and Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield.
