Anyone with initial thoughts in terms of what it would mean for MAN? First thing to note is that they are T2 so would we see Easy make an early move to T2 as part of the masterplan?
I think it would be a shame if it meant the end of Monarch as a separate company as they have a great heritage and provide choice. They also have scheduled routes e.g VRN, that are not provided by others. I think it depends what EZY have in mind, if it means more expansion then that would be a benefit but it is good to have plenty of competition as we have now.
