Tell me about it.
Cambridge to Gatwick return is around 65 and is 3 hours each way, With the car can take any where from 1 1/2 hours each way to all day if M11 or M25 blocked.

Guess Ryanair has got some new customers. When do they start flying there ?

When did Easy Stop flying there ? l only found out as we went to book Easter hols.

Malc if the flying days from STN to Basel don't suit I can recommend flying STN to Friedrichshafen which Ryanair do daily. There are direct trains from Friedrichshafen airport to Basel Bad. Costs 19 euros for one person or 28 euros for upto 5 or 6 with a Baden-Württemberg-Ticket.

In light of recent moves by Aer Lingus to encroach on EasyJet strongholds (BFS,LGW) does anyone think that Easyjet might be tempted to hit back at Dublin?

I know they never did in their battle with RYR when they flew to the Irish regionals, but they could fly to places like Vienna, Amsterdam, Barcelona to airports that Ryanair wouldnt touch.

If U2 were to expand into DUB, even on EI routes only, FR would soon be on the same routes.

If they didn't, then U2 may be able to gain a customer base in DUB which could mean more expansion and more confidence against FR so I would think if U2 were to look at DUB, FR would be right behind them.

The expansion at MAN is being brought forward to late May instead of August.

Now that the Dutch flying tax has been cut effective 1st July 2009, how does this affect the Easyjet operation at Amsterdam ?

Will there really be an extra million seats per year to/from Amsterdam ?
Are the high fees at Schiphol still a sticking point ?
Would Easyjet do anything at Maastricht, or have Ryanair claimed it as their own now ?

An article on the travel mole website has Easyjet's CEO quoted as welcoming the axing of the tax but then pointing out about AMS airport costs being the second most expensive in Europe. Only when airport costs decrease will Easyjet invest in the Netherlands again

They're on sale early! They usually go on sale around late May to mid June... at least that was the case last year. Not complaining though. It might make other carriers put there winter flights on sale early too. See who's offering the best bargain

Remember certain routes are not fully available ie) GVA-UK routes as some are GVA based.

MAN currently stands at daily on this route but will obviously be more.

The weekend operations for MAN-GVA suggest that the 1st service from MAN will be operated by a MAN based unit (0730 on Sat and 0650 on Sun unless there are some very early depts from GVA!); aren't current ops done by STN/BRS based aircraft and the summer programme looks like a non-based unit flying the route.

Any idea when winter LGW flights will be released?

They usually follow a few days after the rest

Italian newspaper reports that EZY will have 50 a/c in Italy and transport 15 mln. passenger a year by 2015.
MXP will get a 16th and 17th a/c until 2010.

How can a journalist possibly make credible claims about the number of planes EZY will have in Italy in 6 years time ? I had thought the state of the economy in the next 6 years might have some sort of an effect, but what do I know...
