EasyJet-5
I approve of the concept, but are these numbers taking into account the contingency required for airliners to hold and possibly divert to an alternate airfield in the event of encountering adverse conditions?

I'm taking the assumption that the quoted target range of 300nm is accounting for some additional capacity for holding and diversions - so that will be the usable service range of the aircraft. I can't find any information outlining that, but it would seem silly to quote a range that that it wouldn't be able to achieve in service.

OK looks like EasyJet’s Spain flights for that period are listed as Sold Out if you try to book them. However Gibraltar flights are still bookable at this time so looks like they will continue. Gonna be a nightmare though for the majority of people who do use the airport to cross into Spain.

Easy Jet. E-Mail
Flew back from Lanzarote yesterday to Bristol Airport with Easy jet.
Have received e-mails from Easy Jet today indicating that anyone with flights booked from Spain [ including Balearic Islands and Canary Islands ] and due to return home after tomorrow will have alternative flights organised to repatriate them earlier then their original flight times and days.
Also states that they cannot guarantee that transfers can be organised at such short notice.
So not only is your Holiday curtailed but you may have to make your own way from your accomodation to the Airport.
Dark days and months for the industry,peoples jobs both here and abroad.
When I disembarked from our aircraft at Lanzarote arrecife airport a week ago it was noticeable how much quieter the ramp was than in previous years.No Monarch,Thomas Cook uk.No AirBerlin.
In less than a weeks time that airport amongst many others will become literal ghost towns.

at least they are getting you back to the UK rather than being stuck down route with nowhere to stay. Hotels are now closing up in 48hours in some regions due to it all.

^^ That has become inevitable. In fact I think they should have laid down their weapons a bit earlier. It's by far my favourite low-cost airline, I sincerely hope they'll survive.

When it comes to rescue packages which government pays for what at Easyjet? There is Easyjet Europe with its headquarters in Austria for inter EU traffic, Easyjet Switzerland and Easyjet UK which are all owned by Easyjet PLC which is actually EU owned and controlled but considered to be a British company.
Not sure it should be down to British tax payers to keep the whole group going.

Ryanair's Michael O'Leary was the person who negotiated with Spanish Govt to get Irish people on holidays in Spain back to Ireland, Ryanair and Aer Lingus have put on loads of flights with sole aim of getting people home.
Let the airlines go bust and then watch none restart because there is no cash around.
