So what if they made a loss. Every other LCC will, and they will see it through along with Ryanair and a couple of others in the long term. I read somewhere last year reporting that Jet2 were predicting to make a loss this winter – EZY and LS s key routes are Spanish which are more popular in Summer. Besides, EZY are one of the best known airlines across Europe and there will always be people willing to travel with them ahead of expensive national carriers.
Even though EZY don’t have a fuel surcharge, the increase in fares is surely covering for that so it provides a sneaky way of gaining more money.
