Easyjet

Krakow for example jet2 started the route so easyjet came on the route. Jet2 dropped the route and 6months later easyjet dropped the route.

The figures were ok but couldn't hold 2 airlines on the route so now ncl wasn't served to krakow until jet2 give it another shot.

Do you really want me to list the routes easyjet have started then dropped
If I've missed any please tell add

London stansted
Berlin
Krakow
Copenhagen
Paris - route did well so why drop it and add ams?

Did I miss any??

Sorry if I'm on one but I don't want easyjet chasing SAS out of ncl have some balls easyjet and start something new like Stockholm or Milan even the long shot Kazakhstan !!!

Jet2 flybe and others

Can't see any new routes from flybe! Flybe and Ryanair don't like ncl for some reason it's all talk and nothing even comes from these talks

Jet2 can't see anything else maybe a few extra flights this winter and hopefully more of these special trips to Russia and Iceland etc.
The next big hope for them will be summer 2014 !!!

Summer 2014 will go on sale next month so hopefully not to long to wait to see what plans they have!!!

Rome seems to be working well for jet2!

Alex207 - can you see why I don't want easyjet to add CPH because of there record of pulling routes once the competition has gone?


Easyjet at there height at ncl had 7 based aircraft and they could have made those aircraft work better for themselves but instead they offered daily flights to everywhere and yes they did lose money. However they could have changed there ways like what they do now and kept the 7 aircraft and had a route list of well 30 dest from ncl.

Jet2 saw an opening in the market at ncl and well done to them. They have invested in setting up routes and have cleaned up what once was all easyjets!!
Lets hope that the success that jet2 has had at ncl continues and they try new routes where others wouldn't!!

Remember we all said daily to Dubai it will never work and it has now a daily 777!!

So lets all remember we need airlines like jet2 to set up these routes and give them 12 months and see if people in the north east can give them a go!!

I absolutely agree with you on the CPH easyjet is great to see SAS at NCL and i hope they do you great and NCL! I just had the idea with the leeds bradford-brussels route ending a aircraft is going to be spare maybe a NCL base for BMI regional ??? Frankfurt could be on the closer horizon for NCL?

Easyjet to Milan would be nice a route that did well for Ryanair however they could make money using the aircraft to Manchester instead.
FR - I don't really think they have much interest in Newcastle? It's seems over the past few years to have tried and failed on routes Milan and Oslo
Flybe and Ryanair don't like ncl for some reason it's all talk and nothing even comes from these talks
Rome.. Easyjet did well on this route but dropped it
does make you wonder how big EZY and FR would be if only they took on board the collective wisdom and commercial acumen of the contributors to this thread.

I agree the wisdom of us all!!!

Easyjet had 5 based aircraft before jet2 came along. Jet2 now have 6 easyjet 3!
Easyjet plan back in 2003 was 8 based aircraft within 10 years

If easyjet hadn't made it easy for jet2 and kept CPH and Berlin they could have achieve more say 10 based aircraft at ncl and making a lot more money than they do now
