Jamie, that's because the MLA route has received strong bookings, I myself would rather pay the EZY price than to drive 2hours each way, which would more than likely close the gap on the prices with the cost of fuel, or a bus ticket
FF, that's the normal compensation anyway, however its probably subject to change depending on circumstances such as length of flight etc etc, ground handlers also have to wait until it gets authorised by EZY ops, so until then nothing is said
