I hope Easyjet do operate to Gatwick. As for the purchase of the E195 this is probably still needed as I assume Easyjet will (1) not base an aircraft in Guernsey and (2) limit the operation to one or two flights per day (on the basis that they are going to operate 3 per day to Jersey). Flights would therefore not be aimed directly at the business market as there is unlikely to be an early departure or late arrival. Jersey's first Easyjet morning departure will not be until 0830 and the last departure from Gatwick will be at 1730. If one then considers that there are currently 160 seats available on the two 0700 departures from Guernsey and the same returning in the evening then the 122 seater E195 may still not be able to accommodate the potential number of passengers who might wish to travel at those times. At present Flybe operate 430 seats per day to Gatwick. Even with the Aurigny E195 operating 4 flights daily and the AT72-500 operating the remaining 2 flights there will be shortfall of 218 seats per day or 79,570 seats per year. Of course not all of these seats are likely to be filled. Let's hope it will work for the benefit of all. Interesting times.
