Interesting to see the changing dynamics in BFS operations. Easyjet are becoming increasingly seasonal, claiming there is no money in European routes in winter. Reducing the based aircraft to 5 and rearranging a few deck chairs to appear to have an interest when really everything European is launched at the expense of something else. The money they are making on UK routes must be substantial though as they are consistently overbooked and thus charging silly money. Jet2 on the other hand seem quite happy to concentrate on the European side of things. I'd say they'll have more based aircraft than EasyJet within 18 months. A little pressure from Wizzair may well see the KRK route canned by easy too. Katowice is close enough to dilute the yield.
Interesting times ahead.
