    UK Airlines sacrificed for fish

    As part of easiest deal ever, the UK airlines will no longer have rights to fly between EU member states; only UK-EU-UK

    Does that affect private jets? If not, nobody here cares...

      Are there any UK airlines left? I mean, those affected probably already moved HQs to EU, problem solved, innit?

        You won’t be allowed to take the spag bol into EU airspace.

          easyJet I think will be the most affected. Ryanair are Irish so safe. I suspect easyJet will simply open an office in Ireland to get around it.

          BA can just switch passengers to other airlines in the the IAG group on a code share basis. Virgin don't do Europe.

          I don't see this as a big deal and certainly didn't see any crowing about it on the travel blogs I follow.

              Opening an office in the EU won't be sufficient, they'll need to set up a separate company in the EU with planes, maintenance and EU based flight crews.

                Easyjet were prepared for this and have an Austrian AOC / subsidiary for exactly this reason.

                Eek watching know-it-alls failing to check whether it's already sorted (it is).

                    EasyJet plans to close bases and cut staff in the UK

                    They're busy recruiting new staff in Austria.
