Could they be announcing the launch of the winter schedule. Most LCC's tend to do this around June time.

Easyjet have made big announcements in the past then quietly don’t implement them. Still waiting for the 3 extra LTN based aircraft that was announced last autumn.

DTM is improving.
There were rumours that some planes would be based in NCE, not sure if that is going anywhere.
I get the impression mid-June will be more than 'only' a route/base announcement.

Could be nothing to do with route network. Could be something more fundamental in terms of structure or leadership?

easyjet

There is a big meeting in Sheffield in late May,which is being attended by Easyjet boss. The meeting is arranged by Yorkshire Forward,and is being attended by a dozen or so regional French carriers and others. The meeting is around the new Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield (DSA). It is widely expected that Easyjet are interested in flying from DSA. Could be anything else but the chronology fits.

Same meeting was held in Liverpool last (?) summer.

I think the meeting was set up by Liverpool Airport/Peel Airports and had a few airlines serving France and French Airports reps in attendance.

Do you mean this meeting , Terry? The one you mentioned on the Finningley thread a few months back?

It's not quite as you're portraying it, is it? No mention of "a dozen or so French regional carriers", for one thing.

Come to think of it, are there a dozen or so French regional carriers?

Your enthusiasm for Friar Tuck International is commendable, but you should beware when it reaches the point of zealotry and starts to bend the facts to suit.

To widen the speculation even further, what about a base in Nice, as had always been thought a good idea, but this time in conjunction with Easy Cruise. Now that the boat is on the water I'm sure Stelios would like to seduce punters down there with attractive combined prices. If pax book his boat and airplanes at last minute it will be very expensive and thus may sink the venture.

Wink Base in NCE

Heard simular rumours about that, but be honest RAT 5, EZY...good ideas...going hand in hand...?

Can you imagine the waitinglist for a base in NCE??

Dougie,

The Nice rumour was years ago, around the same time as Malaga. Missed the boat on both occaisions, although in my mind they are both still open to consideration. I take your point about jolining the queue. Indeed, it would seem for any UK aircrew the lure of a continental base is irresistable.
Reasons on a postcard.

No let's not wait and see.

Let's continue with endless speculation of the latest rumour we've heard or made up - it's so much more fun!

cheers

Actually you are all wrong. It is to announce my promotion to CEO. the city won't be very happy with the huge pay increases i plan to implement or the 50% rosters i'm going to give everyone

Could this be an announcement about 321s as there is a thread going on the rumours area about EZY and 321s?
