UK-based LCC easyJet is reticent to discuss whether it will seek compensation from airports that have applied capacity caps or where it has suffered disruption from staff shortages in summer 2022.
EasyJet's chief operating officer Peter Bellew has resigned as the airline faces ongoing operational difficulties amid the swift ramp-up in air travel demand for the summer season.
Director of network and airports Neil Slaven says the LCC is making far more in-season network changes than it did previously, stressing that the airline is ready to respond to airports with the lowest costs.
UK LCC easyJet has added “Climate Change Transition” as a specific item on its corporate-risk register, highlighting the growing significance of sustainability to airline operations.
UK carriers British Airways and easyJet faced further schedule disruption April 5 because of high staff sickness rates, driven by a national surge in COVID-19 cases.
