The Airlines of Easy Jet has completed the technical analysis of aircraft and is at the present entering the commercial estimate as the airline tries to determine what its future convoy should look like.CEO Carolyn McCall told tested on Tuesday that the company is still allowing for the Airbus A320NEO, Boeing 737 MAX and the Bombardier C Series. It has needs for proposals out with all 3 manufacturers and with CFM and Pratt & Whitney on the engine side.
According to McCall, Easy Jet is looking at a 150-seat version of the C Series. If it went in front with a Bombardier order, it would go for a mixed fleet of two types, as the airline would then also buy a 180-seat aircraft, either the A320NEO or the 737 MAX. In addition to the longer-term order for a re-engine aircraft or the C Series, Easy Jet also is looking at the more short-term requirements to bridge the stage between 2013 and about 2017, which is when the A320NEO or the 737 MAX slots would become available.
The airline could change up to 42 options from its available A320 order from 2014, says CFO Chris Kennedy. Airbus data show Easy Jet has taken release of all 172 A319s on firm order and has 15 more A320s planned for delivery. Kennedy says the share of the bigger A320s will increase to take benefit of economies of scale.
