The airline says revenue per seat growth is expected to be higher than anticipated
Thursday 23 Nov 2017 Author: Lisa-Marie Janes

Budget airline EasyJet (EZJ) is benefiting from extra capacity after Air Berlin declared insolvency and Monarch Airlines entered administration earlier this year.

Revenue per seat growth is anticipated to be positive by ‘low to mid-single digits’ in the six months to 31 March 2018 – better than previously expected.

The good news overshadowed a drop in pre-tax profit in the year to 30 September as lower ticket prices, currency headwinds and higher costs dragged on profitability. (LMJ)
