Conflict in the Middle East meant easyJet, along with other airlines, was not flying to Jordan or Tel Aviv, chief executive Kenton Jarvis said during the group's financial results call today (25 November).
He explained this had affected the industry as a whole because airlines needed to maximise aircraft usage and had increased capacity on key routes to Spain instead: “The Canaries, Malaga, Alicante, have taken the strain and therefore have been at incredibly attractive prices.”
