EasyJet - 4

[ladies and gentlemen]

I thought GB stood for Good Bye?

Is there any feasibility about running any flights during the winter between the UK and Ibiza? I know there is always flights to Palma year round just a reduction during the winter like most spanish routes. Is there no market in Ibiza during the winter? Or does EZY just stop the route to allow for more geneva flights etc? Surely there is some locals who may want to travel to the UK at Christmas?

The IBZ flights are for holiday makers, and as the island esentially shuts down in the tourist sense from October through to May there really is not demand for a direct flight.
IBZ can still be accessed with IB via MAD or BCN.

Looked on the montly timetable for July at Newcastle, says there should be a 4th A319 due this month, does anybody else have more info on this subject?

Heard a rumour yesterday that EZY consider GIB not to be viable without BA operating ex-LGW! Any truth in a rumoured pull-out this winter?

As far as I can see it's still three based units; some routes are flown as 'W' patterns or triangle routes from other bases.

Friends travelled back from LGW to MRS on 5325 and delayed for 3 hrs because of Tech issues, anything serious or just one of those unlucky timings.

Decent set of results but appears they have dropped 170 Million in cash from 1131 M at haf year to 962 Million.

They look still on course to make a profit.

Can anybody confirm the EZY A320 riute to Tenerife from Belfast ??

[tigger2k8]

appears it was another rumor.. as winter seats are now on sale with no new routes.

[toledoashley]

On GIBRALTAR, the tourist board actually want them to expand routes with them, so I doubt it will me going anytime soon. Maybe just a seasonal reduction for the winter.

Not all routes are loaded at once as this would cause an overload on the system

new route: 2nd Nov BSL-DUS (first route to/from DUS) 12 weekly

Is it official?
Interesting, anyway. Having slashed so many routes from Dortmund nearby (in spite of a weak competition there) they decide to start up in DUS (with many established lo-co and legacy carriers operating). But... let's wait and see.

[toledoashley]

Its in the system now.

[virginblue]

Apparenty more routes to come from DUS - anyone in the know already?

[cesare.caldi]

Its in the system now.

I don't find it

[toledoashley]

I seem to have the new version of the website and it is loaded.

Report of a threatened strike for 15/22/29 August in Spain reported in Euro Weekly News yesterday:

TWO workers syndicates that operate two airlines in Spain, Easyjet and Spanair have announced plans for strike action this August in protest against senior management in both companies. Apparently the Easyjet strike will affect flights, but not the Spanair one.

The two workers unions based in Spain, the CCOO and the USO announced they call for 24-hour strike action of all Easyjet maintenance staff in Malaga, Palma de Mallorca, Alicante and Tenerife on August 15, 22 and 29.

The strike will affect 34 flights in Malaga, 20 in Alicante and 27 in Mallorca, although the effect on the Tenerife flights on these dates has not been revealed.

[one post only!]

I thought the strike would affect Spanair more than easyJet? For the EZY flights unless you are unlucky enough to go tech downroute on those days it won't matter one bit!!
