Any new bases for Easyjet?

Bordeaux is a new base for 2018.

55 new routes announced in total today across the network !

Yet again this is becoming very predictable with EZY at Stansted stagnation is what EZY seem to like they don’t seem to mind new airlines moving in pushing them down the rankings but guess it’s working for them in some way

Unless they pull something out of the bag we will stay with the same old routes yet again :ugh:

Or put another way, the airport doesn't meet the criteria for expansion. :ok:

I`m wondering then what is in the EZY book of criteria...
If you have had the privilege of a little peek could you please inform... :)

Newcastle hasn't got anything new either

Nor have either EDI or GLA. Maybe there's a second batch to be released.

I think Ryanair is a threat at STN; they fly to most destinations and will compete on price. They have burnt Easy's fingers before - remember LTN-CPH.

Unless you can spot an Achilles heal and go in big (Jet2 really dramatically expanded the holiday market) STN is difficult- there are other places to go. Anyway STN is arguably doing very well, Jet2,Wow, etc. etc.

The criteria Southside is making money at airport's which give a good return on its investment, i.e. Gatwick, Manchester, Luton. Unfortunately Stansted, Glasgow and Newcastle do not seem on their priority list at this time.

Looks as though EZY fly to 69 destinations from Luton, but not all year-round. Taking Monday 4th June as my example, the first wave requires 22 aircraft to depart before 0800. I suspect one or two spares may be based too.

2 additional aircraft for Basel to 4 A319 + 7 A320

Milan-Pula/Faro
Naples-Torino/Granada
Venice-Seville

If 55 new routes have been announced today then there are 10 missing here so far.

There's more to easyjet than UK. They are a pan-european airline. Expanding in under served markets can make more sense than trying to expand in an over supplied market. Open your minds and realise there is a wonderful world across the channel. Not talking politics, just people & places.

Check that none of these are return workings. At EDI the 7.35 to Basel last summer had arrived from there.

Venice - Rhodes
Venice - Thessaloniki
Venice - Bari
Venice - Brindisi
Venice - Cagliari

Milan Malpensa - Faro
Milan Malpensa - Vienna
Milan Malpensa - Pula

Could not agree more RAT 5.

Liverpool-Dalaman
Liverpool-Pula
Liverpool-Palermo

This is a mostly UK airport and airlines forum and Easyjet are one of the biggest airlines in the UK so it's reasonable for people to be more interested in UK expansion and hope for new routes and new bases in the UK rather than the EU.
