Agree. No point in ramping this sad stock.

Doomed. Doomed.

This is bankrupt zero value for shareholders. No fly zone marks the end for easyJet. Cash burn unreal sub £1 open . This is the end here banks want there money no cash game over the skies are dead sky fall sell sell sell while u can this is going to 0 p very quickly. The government will have to bail the banks fund nhs etc this is the last thing they would save doomed

More important things for the government to spend on. Should be allowed to fail. Pick up the pieces in 6months. We'll be in lockdown for the majority of time anyway.

Here we go , ( as predicted),

The airlines around the world, will no doubt, be bailed out, BUT THE BOND HOLDERS AND SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD RECEIVE NO MORE THAN 1P in the pound .

After all , it is they who took the risk, not the flying public or the government.

British army to patrol supermarkets. Not airports, 'cos there's no one there!

Here we go, (/as predicted)

Air traffic controllers can’t get to work in Europe.

The world has changed

why should the government pay. It's a private company. If it needs money, it should do a rights issue.

If the airline industry in the UK totally falls a part this is how I believe it may go.


Virgin, similar to RBS to bail out government takes 80% stake.

IAG, similar to Lloyds to bail out Government takes 40% stake.

TUI UK is bought out by Easyjet, to bail out Easyjet government takes 20% stake.

Is it really both just and moral to bail out airline companies who have spent the last two months spreading this disease globally? Bail them out with money which we now need for our family’s health and well being?

We should protest as one!

All media reporting that nationalisation now only option following £7.5b request.

[volsung] 14/3/2020 23:00

Karl Marx was right in the end

[smartie6] 14/3/2020 22:59

Looks like there’s a strong possibility that airlines will be nationalised.

Bloodbath at Monday's opening

The bailout request will come ahead of what could prove to be the bloodiest week in British aviation history, with British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, easyJet and Ryanair all expected to announce mass groundings of aircraft and potentially huge redundancies as the COVID-19 crisis escalates.

I was looking at a 100p buy in target for Easyjet and 50p for IAG/British Airways.

[bellesimo1] 14/3/2020 21:28

I was going to buy target at 800p since share price was 1300p,but now no no as my nature of work (airport) passenger are falling dramatically in 5 London airports only,
without including Manchester Liverpool East Midlands Edinburgh....
we are talking 11 million cut a week
or could be worse as NHS1 said zero flight zone...
I’m surprised they didn’t suspend trading.

Corporate socialism?

Virgin Atlantic boss Peter Norris urges Boris Johnson to sanction £7.5bn airline bailout.

Peter Norris, the chairman of Virgin Atlantic Airways' majority shareholder, Virgin Group, will write to the prime minister on Monday to warn that the sector needs immediate financial aid to survive.

The bailout request will come ahead of what could prove to be the bloodiest week in British aviation history, with British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, easyJet and Ryanair all expected to announce mass groundings of aircraft and potentially huge redundancies.
