Not disagreeing with the general gist of your comments - but, just been to Madeira for 8 days & it certainly is not as you describe. One test on arrival, result within 7 hours, & the rest of the time free to enjoy a relaxing holiday. And, I don’t think I saw a policeman - except at the airport.

I’ve been lucky to get away a few times this year and whilst restrictions are tightening generally, we found things to be quite relaxed provided you wear your mask. The U.K. governments quarantine policy is the main thing that has stifled demand fo leisure destinations. The underlying demand is actually pretty strong.
The number of EasyJet rotations are probably a targeted measure to keep yields viable on existing frequencies. |
Another day, another sale and leaseback:

But it safest of all to stay where you are, where you are in control of your environment and whom you meet.

"[Johan] Lundgren said that in the near future EasyJet should not need more than the £3bn it has already raised."
So, in theory there's enough cash in the bank (as it were) to survive another 12 months of this. But then they're in the poop, I guess. If demand isn't back up in some format for the 2021 summer season there's gonna be a lot of trouble for a lot of people, sadly. |
The pandemic has put great pressure on EasyJet's finances, forcing it to take on more debt, go to shareholders for extra cash, and sell dozens of its aircraft. The airline said on Tuesday that after talks with the Bank of England and the Treasury, it would extend its borrowing under the government Corporate Finance Facility scheme, and stagger repayments. |
Owe a £1000 to the bank you worry...Owe a £1,000,000 to the bank they worry.

It should come as no surprise that, to a business with a high proportion of leased assets, substantial staff numbers, and a very significant downturn in demand, they show a loss. What else ?
But this is in conventional accounting terms. What is far more important at this time is how "free cash" is going. The two sets of figures can be miles apart. You don't go out of business because you show a loss in the published accounts. You do so because you have run out of cash. |

Italian bases will be scaled down from 36 to 27 based aircraft
Milano Malpensa da 22 a 21 (la base principale nel Paese), mentre maggiore sarà l’impatto negli altri due scali: Napoli vedrà ridursi gli aerei con la livrea arancione da 7 a 4, mentre Venezia passa da 7 a 2. |
Ooops :-( ..... easyjet pls Stay Alive

Wow..that's really drastic cut in Venice..From 5 to just 2!..Why so? to support the seasonal base of FAO and AGP? Is it temporary until traffic picks up again?
