Having read a few articles that interviews the Norwegian CEO I can't help feel he's slightly MOLesk in his approach to things. He appears fairly ruthless, knows what he wants and how to get it. For this reason, as an ezy fo, I certainly think both Norwegian and Vueling are big threats to our profitability in the next few years.
Even if they do fall by the way side, which I'm not convinced they will, certainly not Vueling with IAG's backing, they will provide competition and reduce margins. I think they may have bitten off more then they can chew with the long haul, at least to start with. Such high utilisation rates of a brand new aircraft were bound to run into trouble. Lots of very delayed flights and upset passengers isn't great for retaining customers.
Flexicrew aside, once on a perm contract at ezy it is a pretty good place to be. I would certainly not, at this stage, consider leaving here for Norwegian, Vueling or Wizzair.
