Liverpool is trying its best to be a bus base, but you Stansted/Gatwick lot keep nicking our buses! Second one arrives today in fact.

So BFS will go Bus as well then?

BR.

So financially and socially, it seems worth trying to avoid a London base...? :hmm:

No BR, BFS will NOT go bus :ugh: There seems no logic as to where they get put eg GLA/EDI but there are no buses in the plan for BFS according to them that should know :*

Family friendly base/city?
 

It is very interesting to read about the different EZY bases.
I have to choose a 737 base next week.
Can anyone give me a good suggestion?
I am moving from main land Europe, with the whole family.:confused:

Thanks

It depends on what you are looking for. The only full Boeing bases now are LTN, BFS and NCL. I can only speak for LTN

Luton has the most number of routes, most 737 crew and as an airport is not as busy as STN or LGW.

However you are close to head office and many people choose to live quite a way from the airport.

If you are planning on visiting family on a regular basis in Europe it is probably the easiest and most convenient for getting home.

Any more questions PM me

I got fed up of long haul flight, so planning to apply to easy jet (used to fly 320 and 330).
BUT I have been told that EASY is Not good for a long term career..:confused:? Personnaly i enjoy short haul better than long haul..
Are they working now on 5354?
Cheers.

loc22550,

5-3, 5-4 should be on the line by 1st of November.

TFCM

... with further improvements (5/4/5/4 maybe) by the middle of next year.

Finally the bright future is orange :ok:

there is nothing bright about 5 early starts :\

BFS, LTN and NCL will go Airbus when the Boeing 737-700 leases run out or they can sell them on. Another 2-3 years I would expect.

As for social life at easyjet - life is what you make it. If nothing is happening at your base organise something. Whether it's a curry night, pub night or whatever.

At my old small base we might only get 6 people turning up for a curry but better than nothing.....

the last NG lease expires in 2012. Only about 5 of the NG's have lease release clauses. That makes your 2-3 yrs more like 5-6 years. Unless of course the Company did something 'ground breaking' and dared to open a new European base with NG's or operate mixed fleet bases. Bring it on...please :ok:

I stand corrected, I was under the impression they were on 5 year leases and the first were due to be handed back shortly.

The Airbus is tops :D
