There has been comment on here about some of the very good pax numbers increases on some Ezy routes out of Bfs, especially to London. For a number of years now, I have believed that Ezy has been holding Bfs back, by restricting capacity. This winter, they add about 200k seats out of Bfs, and suddenly we see some really good pax number increases. Is it coincidence that they add all these seats months before Fr arrive, or did they know something was brewing?

Ezy have every right to manage their aircraft to maximise profit. However, by doing so, they can leave themselves open to attack. Their timings to Lgw during the week from Bfs are not that good, the timings on a Saturday ex London are really poor. So maybe they don't have too much to complain about.
