In its results statement for the first quarter, ended 31 December, the airline said due to its network of primary airports and “trusted brand”, it was uniquely placed to take advantage of “the material reduction in competitor capacity at our key bases”.
“We continue to invest in the right opportunities – we are growing at Gatwick and will have a record 71 aircraft based there this summer, and our initiatives in ancillaries and easyJet holidays are expected to generate material opportunities for future profit growth.”
