Pipkin has to turn left as he enters planes from the rear steps. If ge turn right it's the toilet !!

[andy pipkin] 25/10/2016 20:52

tslob, my dear chap. When I embark on a plane, I turn left. It avoids having to sit next to people like you.

I think you`ll find Easyjet could well be at Heathrow IF this runway gets built...

....Heathrow’s chief executive, John Holland-Kaye, said it would not need to substantially increase charges and fares could fall. “On average, we can deliver this for the same charges as today,” he said. “That’s important for the economic point of view – but from the passenger point of view, capacity to get airlines like Flybe and easyJet in will help competition.”

Chaps , take a look at Spire Healthcare. Made I nice little 15% earlier this year in double quick time . If it drops a few more pence ( say down to 360 ) might re enter on fundamentals and possible bid. Interesting investec with its price targets hammered this one last year. Its price target blown out of the water and had to change view.

Very intelligent post Andy.


Well done. you might need to be flown out via one of the freight centres.


Was it all original you or was it really written by your care worker?

Step 4, deport bulletin board idiots.

Once we are free of the EU shackles we can start to rebuild our once fine country. Other countries will be keen to negotiate deals with us so that we can trade with them. And to do that we need reliable links from airports around the UK. Hopefully the Government will wake up and realise that to focus everything in and around London will restrict our growth.

Step one, move freight flights to somewhere more central (Birmingham or Manchester?) or build a dedicated airfield just for freight with strong rail links to distribution centres around the UK. This might even relieve some of the M25 gridlock!

Step two, use the spare inbound and outbound flight capacity in and around London to encourage more passenger flight ....... including EasyJet ones.

Step three, make plans on how to spend your year on year EasyJet dividend payments :-)

How long did Terminal 5 take. A decade?Most of us will be dead before anything is touching down on the 3rd runway ffs. Should have gone with the Boris option. At least it shows a bit of ambition.

[csmwssk12hu] 25/10/2016 18:57

Sod competition rules there is no way easyjet will get into Heathrow, so let's say Heathrow let easy jet in and ba move to gatwick? Big loss for Heathrow or ba turn round and say we will give you 10% of what we were paying? Heathrow already is a monopoly ba pay over the odds and no one will get in without there say so, no one will admit that but everyone knows it, the third runway will go ahead this time, the disappointing thing from an economic point of view is that gatwick and stanstead didn't get one either, Dubai Doha Paris Madrid are all taking money away from us, China built Beijing from scratch in four years we will take over 10 years to build a runway, it's comical really, and I'm sorry for those that live nearby, but if you buy a house anywhere near an airport you take the risk of this happening, I have sympathy if there was no airport then all of a sudden they want to build one though

[philanderer] 25/10/2016 16:20

And no chance of a 3rd runway at Heathrow anyway.

[spob] 25/10/2016 15:31

No chance of Ryanair or Easy getting into the London monopoly airport

British airways own that place


That's why Ryanair was blocked from buying air lingus

They said competition reasons

But they were happy for BA to buy it !

[dr_smith] 25/10/2016 15:06

I don't know, but would expect EZJ cannot legally be prevented from having slots, other things equal.
Also, the expansion funding/finance/consents may themselves have criteria for non-restrictive business, interests of UK etc.

[csmwssk12hu] 25/10/2016 14:33

Interesting easyjet at Heathrow? I am pro easy jet but I am afraid Heathrow will always be ba airport effectively apart from other overseas or AA etc, no way ba will want easyjet there and I can't see Heathrow letting them either

So Heathrow it is. With the skies above the south east already running close to full, safe capacity, and Heathrow being the main airport, I can see EZJ being shoved down the queue for airspace and having to circle a lot round places like Dunstable and Cleethorpes prior to landing in the mecca of Luton.

Despite what is written here, I do not see this as good news for EZJ in any way.////// Could that be because you are short here and a little bit biased? LOL

[philanderer] 25/10/2016 14:26

EZJ plans to use the 'new' Heathrow...


Carolyn McCall, chief executive of easyJet, said: "This is good news for UK consumers and businesses and will help ensure that the UK is better connected to the rest of the world.

"With the right charging structure and the right infrastructure for our efficient model, easyJet plans to operate from Heathrow, in addition to our existing London bases, providing new routes and lower fares to customers."

[dr_smith] 25/10/2016 14:20

AP: Re circling, I saw this :


The eddy current circles struck me as how big/bold they are, representing inefficiency, wasted fuel, pollution.

I have mixed feelings about where airport should be:
1. Too much is London centric, how many of London airport users actually find them convenient.
2. Mix is perhaps now with a growing business bias, so London centic is justified.
3. Could some London flights be replaced by several regional flights for regional users and free up valued London slots.
4. Living over the decades in Chesire, Bedfordshire and Dorset I have typically flown from London - not because it was convenient, but this was where packages/flights went from.

Biggest loser is the owners of Gatwick namely GIP and its fund together with the firms that ferry people between H and G . Andy get yourself the flights app . You will then understand the effective motorways in the air . Easy power at Gatwick will increase . Good news.

[philanderer] 25/10/2016 13:34

Heathrow will never happen Andy.

[philanderer] 25/10/2016 13:27

So what are the odds now that Gatwick will put in a planning application anyway to build a second runway in conjuction with Bechtel ?

And where`s Heathrow getting the £15 bn ?

Or you could say you dont know the answer?

I dont./////A truthful post from Andy Pinocchio but hardly surprising.

[suffersnofools] 25/10/2016 13:19

Euro's - It's their national currency!

Ryanair have several service locations, as do EZJ. Ireland, Stansted, Prestwick, Spain, Italy, Poland, Lithuania.......

[nigelpm] 25/10/2016 13:16

1) Ryanair - internally in EUR but clearly there'll have contracts in lots of currencies - GBP and Dollar being the major other ones.

2) Depends on your definition of undervalued.

3) They'll have maintenance facilities at other airports in the UK as well and will subcontract stuff out. Ryanair - similar.
