Again good comments
I did use the Budapest service once at Easter time and LF were good(Easter of course), likewise tried Milan and only 15pax
Regarding fares on sun routes all airlines will have high prices for summer months, but Sept and Oct?
I did use FAO twice last last for business, great to fly out Monday morning at 6.40 with EI and return late flight Wednesday with EZY to the same airport
This year I'm afraid it will be EZY to FAO for my two business trips.
Wonder if EI looked at the number of single flights booked with them on overlapping routes with EZY. Although majority of pax book return flights with same airline, some business pax book outward with one and return with another.
Maybe I am an exception
