Buying here-while airport chaos is a negative for all airlines what it shows is huge pent up desire and demand for travel is returning quicker than anticipated-prices and margins are rising rapidly-which will quickly transform airline fortunes once the present publicity and furore settles.

Solving the pilot shortage will not be easy. It takes years to gain the training and experience needed to fly an airliner and all of the other airlines are recruiting too. I don't see a quick solution here, other than keeping more of the fleet on the ground. With cancellations and compensation, I reckon this will turn into yet another loss-making quarter.

This will be the third year of big losses. By the autumn, the surge will be over and everyone will be worried about paying the mortgage and energy bills and feeding their families. Q4 will be another big loss and one with a long shadow into next year.

Govt minister blaming airline management.

There will be much finger-pointing next between airports and airlines, but it looks as though both are to blame and that aircrews are scheduled so tightly that they don't have sufficient legal hours to accommodate late running.

Looking grim for the shareprice. Back below £5 soon, and maybe even lower.

Only UK airlines/airports have problems?...

[royaloak] 31/5/2022 09:14

Awful story on Radio 5 around 8.15 am, awful treatment of passengers missing their holiday, booked hotel etc themselves which EZJ should be responsible for, as yet no response from them. All the airlines will have similar problems in the months ahead it looks.

Another poor summer for tourism abroad,should these airport delays keep happening.Anyone who has not booked a holiday may well be having second thoughts,and who can blame them.It’s down to airport staffing problems and tour companies can’t do a thing about it sadly.

[greco600] 30/5/2022 08:54

Its not just ezj, after not making enough money during covid, of course they now all want to sell upto capacity.I think if you have been booking flights during this half term or summer holidays, you have to expect uncertainty, its all over the news.

[albert3591] 30/5/2022 08:10

EZJ won’t worry,they have plenty more mugs who will fly with them.

A mate who is away with the wife and two kids just had flight cancelled. He's in the Gatwick Hoilday Inn and he booked City Jet to get home 2 Moro at £700 plus the hotel at £180. A very expensive weekend. EasyJet are gonna have some serious refunds to process!

You used to ramp MCRO as well Monty

They will fly with BA who seem to have missed the chaos.

[snookered4] 28/5/2022 08:49

People will vote with their feet like they have done with the P&O debacle. I know firms that regularly use EasyJet for business travel who will never use them again! Downward spiral - will they survive?? They will need to get their house in order pretty quickly!

[phillis] 28/5/2022 07:21

Oh dear - another horror story

Jason said he liked his mustard sandwich after all :-)

I think you better close that short position now before you get a margin call!

[danvandan] 27/5/2022 13:28

200 flights cancelled. If they're all full as suggested by some on here, then that's another 40,000 p1ssed off easyjet customers who'll be thinking about Ryanair or BA next time. The more relevant aspect of this though is that it indicates bad management that will feed through into other actions and outcomes, like more losses. Shareprice seems unaffected though - that wave of optimism is doing its best. I suspect, reality will eventually bring the share price back to earth.

[danvandan] 26/5/2022 17:10

I've been flying too - airports are not packed. All the rows that I could see on my flight had vacant seats between passengers. Plenty of round-trip seats at £100 on easyjet flights 3 weeks out. On top of that, some of the fleet is still not flying. easyjet is not helping itself by p1ssing off 5 or 6 thousand existing easyjet customers daily by cancelling 20+ flights every day with practically no notice.

Key measure coming up in a few weeks - this Q3 ends in 5 weeks. If the business has managed to lose yet more money in this quarter (I fully expect this to happen), despite johan's claims that volume is at '2019 levels' I anticipate a big markdown on the shares.

In the meantime, misplaced optimism might push the share price up to unrealistic levels again. Anything over £6 is a big shorting opportunity imv.

[chard1980] 26/5/2022 14:19

Would disagree if they keep cancelling flights minutes before the gate opens. Currently sat in BRS and lots of flights being cancelled with no genuine reason. Shambles.

[ttny2004] 26/5/2022 08:45

Been flying lots last 3 weeks. Airports packed again. Think we will be surprised by positive impact on airlines this year. Think will be a year from now on. Very strong next 2 quarters coming for all airlines.With emirates every business / first seat sold out on route I was on

[ben gibbons] 26/5/2022 07:33

Just the allergic reaction that wasn't so good :-)

Mustard tasted quite good actually 😳
