Coronavirus: EasyJet could keep middle seats empty when flying resumes

The airline's boss sees pent-up demand for travel when the lockdown ends though does not expect planes to be full immediately.

Good news. Air travel is vital to the economy so I expect the gov will be all over it when lockdown relaxes (much like schools returning..) 9 months is more than enough time.

'EasyJet secures enough cash for nine-month grounding of planes'

Low-cost carrier does not expect to take new aircraft deliveries next year

The buck stops at the top, and the top is BJ, or maybe his mate Dom.

After all this is over how many people will be saying I don’t think I want to live in London anymore.Then an exodus to the more semi rural areas. Maybe some companies will feel the same.

Rubbish you daft old git. Numbers are being plucked out of thin air. Any death be it flu, pneumonia or heart attacks are all being put down to the Coronavirus.

The biggest crime was not sorting the trains and underground out at a much earlier date. The finger of blame there has to be at the Mayor.

I'd hate to be a smoker over the age of 60 living in and around London that's for sure!

Uk a third smaller population than germany (which has/had open borders with the likes of italy) yet has more than 4x the deaths, the uk as usual a basket case dealing with anything ( nhs not that great either im afraid) and I would think flight ban from uk will be among last to be lifted. Hopeless (brexit morons) uk gov should have acted two weeks sooner, would have been a different story.

EJ - more choppers flying around the UK than commercial aircraft.

[clocktower] 16/4/2020 11:29

Which country is going to be crazy enough to let flights come in from the UK?

If and when the airlines start to open for business the huge costs that will be incurred that are immense compared to the likely income, so they will haemorrhage funds at an alarming rate, putting the whole structure at immediate risk of collapse.

Flying planes with empty middle seats just will not pay unless they hike the seat prices, then there will be few customers.

Some people do not understand what business disruption is!!

[bc4] 16/4/2020 11:21

Same as yours I bet LOL

[tlobs2] 16/4/2020 11:12

Please feel free to set out what that analysis is based on. Or have you posted that on the wrong BB?


I take it that you work in the City ;-)

[hodhasharon] 16/4/2020 11:05

My analysis is showing a 300p target.

[tlobs2] 16/4/2020 11:04

The wheels are starting to turn again....

[bc4] 16/4/2020 10:59

No even when restrictions are lifted the last to ease will be large crowds Ie sport, pubs and overseas travel it is impossible to say I told tlobs2 a while ago that it was about business disrution but he laughed it off!

[albert3591] 16/4/2020 10:48

bc4 not a lot of chance with my 20 June departure sadly then.

[bc4] 16/4/2020 10:40

A lot of these rises will be sold into, unfortunately it could be well over 3/4 months before leisure flights resume again I have flights booked with EasyJet in AUG Sept and OCT but I am not that optimistic

[tlobs2] 16/4/2020 10:23

To be fair Phil now probably is the time to be buying but that price could best be described as optimistic.


I'll settle for a tenner for starters for the shares now back in my SIPP ;-)


There's no rush as I won't be retiring in the near future thanks to the Chinese.

[philanderer] 16/4/2020 10:12

I'll have some of what these guys are on ;-)

Morning everyone

16th april UBS 'buy' tp 1320p up from 1300p

Once the first makes a significant move to close they will be crawling all over each other to try and buy shares under a tenner IMHO


EasyJet said that given the level of continued uncertainty, it was not possible to provide financial guidance for the remainder of the full 2020 financial year.

"However, we continue to take every step necessary to reduce cost, conserve cash burn, enhance liquidity, protect the business and ensure it is best positioned for a return to flying," it said.

With its various funding initiatives, it expects to have generated total additional liquidity of around 1.85-1.95 billion pounds ($2.31-$2.43 billion), leading to a notional cash balance of about 3.3 billion pounds.
