Drivers of cost performance

Revenue growth more than offset cost increases due to price and mix

F’09 contained a number of one-off benefits e.g. Boeing spares

Good delivery against £190m savings programme, crew savings (£30m) will be delayed as we resolve operational issues

Going forward £190m programme will be part of easyJet ‘lean’

Outlook

Capacity measured in seats flown, adjusting for the impact of disruption is expected to

increase compared to the prior year by around 8% as easyJet continues with its strategy

of carefully targeting growth. On a reported basis, capacity is expected to be up by 12%

for the full year and 14% in the first half. The current expectation is that competitor

capacity on easyJet routes will be up by low single digits.

Over 45% of the available first half seats now sold and forward bookings are in line with

the prior year. Total revenue per seat in the first half is expected to be broadly flat on a

reported basis (at current exchange rates) * versus the prior year and slightly up at

constant currency despite a greater proportion of A320 aircraft in the fleet and the impact

of increased APD in the UK and its introduction into Germany.

Total reported cost per seat excluding fuel (at current exchange rates) * is anticipated to

fall by around 4% on a underlying basis, assuming normal levels of external disruption.

Improvements in maintenance and ownership costs and a reduction in disruption related

costs will offset the impact of planned increases in crew costs as we build more resilience

in to the operation.

The economic outlook in Europe remains uncertain and the continuing level of ATC

industrial action is causing disruption to our flying programme and driving additional cost.

However, the strength of the easyJet network combined with its proposition of offering

consumers the best value fares to convenient airports means that easyJet is well

positioned for future success.
