The plan for Monarch in T2 is to have busing departures on remote stands for the first wave and the majority of the second wave departures. As I understand it, a good financial incentive was offered by the Airport which Monarch accepted.

Do easyJet realise what a retrograde step this move is?

T1, especially pier B is a slum compared to T3.
Although B pier itself is not as good as T3, the rest of the terminal is quite nice since the renovation.

If room is going to be made at T1 with Monarch's departure, why can't EZY use Pier C too.
Although the plan is to use B pier for EZY, no doubt the day to day logistics of the airport will entail EZY using C pier too.

On another note, are Thomas Cook moving to T2 too?
TCX are to remain in T1, however, I'm not too sure what the plan is with regards LH/LX moving to T3 to be with partner airline BMI.
