A disgrace by Easy Jet

It's the simple laws of business - you charge the fee that you think the market can stand, as simple as that.

If the customer thinks it's too expensive, they have the choice to walk away and take their business elsewhere.

“I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.”

Airlines use a fairly simple business model.

When they first release flights, prices are relatively cheap. As tickets sell and available seats become more limited, prices go up. If you book nearer to departure time, especially around holiday times, prices will be expensive.

My guess is that the flights from England have more availability, hence the cheaper prices.

As an aside, I have never found Easyjet to be cheap, especially if you need to take luggage. Scheduled flights always work out cheaper for me.
