Quarter Ending 30 June
· Revenue Per Seat up 4.7% at constant currency to £57.58
· Load Factor up 2.8% to 89.1%,
· On Time Performance, up 3% to 87%
· Cost Per Seat including fuel up 5.3%, excluding fuel up 1%
The success of the ‘europe by easyJet’ campaign and the recently launched mobile app have both contributed to seat sales, with the mobile app now accounting for more than 2% of sales. We have also added capacity in key markets to improve returns, such as in UK, France, Switzerland and Italy.
Looking forward, we have around three quarters of summer seats now booked, in line with the previous year. With the continued strong operational and financial performance of the business profit before tax for the year ending 30 September 2012 is anticipated to be in the range of £280 million to £300 million, as long as there continues to be normal levels of disruption.

MAN-MAD
easyflyer83,
Do you happen to know and can you tell us why MAN-MAD was canned rather than LPL-MAD? It seems very strange given the apparent success of the Manchester route. Was it a political move given the fleet reduction at LPL, or down to pure economics? Hopefully it will be back for next summer? Thanks, DomyDom

DomyDom, why should LPL be in your words canned, the LPL-MAD is a well established successful route, maybe the MAN-MAD was not as successful as you think, including Easyjet how many carriers have now pulled this route.
It is surprising that the Manchester-Madrid route should go from 3 airlines (Iberia, Easyjet and Ryanair) to none in a short period of time - even if Govt / airport tax rises 10 euros.
I recall a few years ago a similiar collapse occurred on the London-Nantes route. Shortly afterwards I think flybe reopened the route.
I would not be too surprised if next summer or in 2014 one carrier decides that with the other 2 players gone that it's worth restarting the route

RE: MAN-MAD Easyjet. LPL-MAD is indeed well established and I'm sure at the time the decision was made, it was probably thought to protect the LPL service rather than battle it out with FR and IB (both of who have also now dropped the route). Curiously, Easyjet haven't yet informed passengers that the route isn't operating so who knows what they have planned. Things seem up in the air regarding MAD and it wouldn't surprise me if MAD made a return at some point, possibly with ZRH.
New routes for next year are looking increasingly like VCE, KEF and JMK. Nothing confirmed still but the first two routes come from directly from a most reliable source within the carrier.
Moscow also being evaluated from both LON and MAN. Yes I know they need to apply for rights but nevertheless it's being looked at.

neil - you're not the only one to be pondering this topic. Easyjet, Ryanair, Wizzair, flyBE, Germanwings and Norwegian are all yet to release anything beyond the end of March

Think all airlines will be watching the economic and non economic conditions over next 6 months as factor in recessions across Europe, potential attack on Iran, US Presidential election economic impact plus a few others not thought off and everybody will be cautious before releasing too much.
Days of everybody booking a year in advance are over for the majority, though some people still wish to give the airlines money a year in advance.
