[airhumberside]

ORY-ATH is Easyjet Switzerland isn't it?

[Getoutofmygalley]

Not going by the flight number showing as allocated to it, is has an EZY prefix as opposed to EZS which would designate a Swiss flight.

[airhumberside]

Just that the slot at Orly was applied for by and awarded to EZS. Has it been transferred to EZY?

[GW76]

"The Milano schedule has been replaces by 3 times weekly DTM-EDI and DTM-SKG."
DTM-EDI would have been 3 times weekly but has to be at least 4x weekly to get subsidised by Scottish Route development fund.

[GoEDI]

It has to be 3x weekly for SE funding actually (used to be 5x weekly), so that's irrelevant.

[GoEDI]

Well obviously not, otherwise EZY wouldn't have received funding. I believe the rules were adjusted across the board to aid the new EU entrants at the time, that was all.

[dwlpl]

Bristol is to get a daily Milan route starting on St Georges day and a second daily rotation to Paris starting in October.

[cougafer]

i wish they would announce exactly the same thing from Belfast....!

they seem to have neglected their Belfast base

[eastern wiseguy]

"same from Belfast"...well they have the market virtually sewn up...so I suppose the attitude could be "why bother?"

[CHIVILCOY]

GoEDI
"Well obviously not, otherwise EZY wouldn't have received funding. I believe the rules were adjusted across the board to aid the new EU entrants at the time, that was all."

Regarding the EDI-DTM
Not so, only new EU entrants are allowed the three day a week rule.Don't know where you get the "accross the board" rule from as there is no mention of that in the rule book.

I had no idea EZY were planning the expansion towards Middle East. I think only now it has been told openly as these plans are to be revoked.

EasyJet Plc, Europe’s second-largest discount carrier, abandoned plans to start a Middle East airline, favouring expansion in Europe instead, Asharq al-Awsat said, citing EasyJet founder Stelios Haji-Ioannou.
EasyJet negotiations with National Air Services, a Saudi Arabian private aircraft operator, fell through last summer, Ioannou told the Saudi-owned newspaper, without elaborating.
EasyJet will not start flights to the Middle East because flights from Europe are longer than four hours, the newspaper reported.
