> Whats obscure about Grenoble and Geneva?!
Indeed, Geneva did excellent numbers as ski destination from BOH last winter and is operating as a x9 route this year. Grenoble is x3 (TuThSa) as a ski route new this year and Krakow is the thrid Polish route to launch from BOH (WizzAir service Gdansk and Katowice) so there is clearly a demand (that or the Poole Pirates speedway team next year will be made up of all polish riders....)
With EZY and FR both rumoured to be launching bases in BOH in the not to distant future and the new terminal building works finally underway, exciting times ahead.

Despite Outofsynch's post, and although I have already posted my thoughts on where the alleged new EasyJet bases are to be, my personal opinion has now changed to 2 out of MAN, BHX and LYS

It's LYS and CDG . Forget MAN..at least until EZY have finished trying to change their agreement with LPL. BHX would be above BOH in the pecking order but I would agree that we are unlikely to see new UK bases anytime soon. I have also heard the idea about nightstop bases abroad.

The announcement is imminent
According to French press (La Tribune), the announcement of two new bases in France will take place tomorrow.
Easyjet passe à l'offensive en France.
Le transporteur britannique à bas tarifs va, selon nos informations, annoncer demain la création en 2008 de deux bases d'exploitation en France.
L'une dans le nouveau terminal à bas coûts de l'aéroport de Lyon-Saint-Exupéry, l'autre à Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle.

The annoucement of 2 french bases is confirmed in various french press releases for 2008 (summer 2008)
- 2 * A319 will be based on LYS base
- 3 * A319 will be based on CDG Base, and quantity of arcraft based would go to CDG to 12/14 in the next 3 yr
From LYS Easyjet will certainly schedule domestic flights

In the past easyJet have stated that a mimumum of 3 aircraft are needed to make a base viable. If indeed it is to be 2 aircraft in LYS then I suspect it will be nightstopping crews - in the first instance, in any case.
That said, both bases would seem to be among the favourites currently rumoured. The other is Lisbon.

Easyjet New Bases
Found this when digging around the markets this morning, explains the SP rise...

Hardly a shock but at least it puts the idle speculation to an end

Time of speculation is off now we enter in time of announcement
- For CDG slots clearly required and date of terminal move (EZY will go from T3 to T2) known
- for LYS to morrow press conf will take place in LYS, certainly not to announce a UK base
