Easyjet Naples from BHX and MAN!
Easyjet Naples from BHX and MAN! - according to signs at Naples Airport, Easyjet is to start services from Birmingham and Manchester, U.K. Is this true anyone?

Would be nice but really; Why would easyJet pay the higher rates at MAN when they have a base just 30 miles up the motorway where the handling fees are substantialy lower than at MAN? And remember, If MAN is considered close enough to Liverpool to be considered a gateway for that city, then the same applies in reverse.

Hi,
Four of easyJet Switzerland's 737-300s will return to the UK from mid-August ahead of the delivery of five A319s.
Would you say that this could strengthen the MAN and BHX rumours. Two of these four a/c could be based at Manchester and Birmingham Prehaps to operate to Naples?
Thanks

'Could' do a lot of things! It may happen or it may not.
Here is a quote from easyJet earlier this year A spokeswoman for easyJet said yesterday there would be no question of the company switching any of its business from JLA to Manchester.
"We have a fantastic relationship with Liverpool - we currently operate about 10 routes from there, so having another base so close competing in the same market would be very difficult and expensive."
The article, which incidentally Ryanair has an input to, can be found at http://icliverpool.icnetwork.co.uk/0...l&siteid=50061
Also I doubt easyJet Switzerland will send any of its 737's anywhere until its Airbus's are ready for passengers, the latest date being towards the end of September. Even then they will not send them back to the UK en masse.
