Starting on 28 March 04 Easyjet will introduce Liverpool to Basel/Mulhouse Euroairport. The flights will operate daily.
They also recently announced Liverpool to Cologne/Bonn starting 22 June.

I guess flying out to Basel and back from Geneva would be an interesting trip, the train in between would be nice, not sure it could be done in a day however.
Should be possible, although I don’t know what time the return flights from GVA are at.
The train from basel to Geneva Airport takes about three and a half hours, going via Delemont, Neuchatel, and round Lake Geneva.
Jean, as to your question about easyjet receieving 73G’s, two were delivered about two weeks ago (G-EZKC and G-EZKD), I don’t know if there are any more due, although I believe there are. As for the A319’s, the first UK registered Airbus is due this month (it’ll be G-EZEA); there are 4 A319’s due this month, with another 4 due in April, 3 in may, 2 in June, 1 each in July and August, and 3 in September. The UK registered Airbusses are to be based at LGW and SXF.

I don’t know about your 737 question, Saw a series 700 while i was there on Sunday night. i had just arrived from London City on the new VLM service. Also noted a 757 from Cardiff on a football charter.

The new terminal is large and certainly the check-in hall has a lot of room. The security takes longer these days, probably because of passenger volumes. I noticed they are advising that check-in closes 40 mins and not 30 mins prior now, is this for all there airports does anyone know ??

Is easyJet still getting new 737’s, or all all new ones A319’s now? Are the 733’s being replaced everytime another one is added?
Good news for Liverpool again, is their Terminal still able to handle the increasing activity? Are there plans for a runway extension? They just bult a new terminal, is it big?
