With slots becoming scarcer and Gatwick being by far easyJet's most profitable base, this is where they will want the extra capacity on the most popular routes without having to add additonal frequencies...
I can imagine more and more of easyJet's A319's at LTN being upgraded to A320's, which adds 30 additional seats over the smaller type, before any A321's are considered.
The new 321s will be spread round a few bases including ltn, and it is now more than probable that the majority of new planes will be A321 neos instead of 320s. As 319s are pensioned off so the fleet of 21s will increase.
