Certainly the gap between low Cost and Legacy has diminished. Indeed the latest offerings from BA Gatwick of a cost with or without bags is a proving point plus naturally EZY have now intoduced allocated seats and the days of the scrum should have gone. Other things I have noted - well obviously (for the likes of EZY against BA out of LGW - newer, cleaner aircraft. A tendancy to depart on schedule or ahead of schedule form various airports has also been experienced. Sure there can be issues with low cost if in transit however it is interesting that actually the airport of Milan Malpensa is thrying to deal with that to ensure seamless LCC to LCC transfer. This could be the way forward....
