Will easyjet agree on a deal? What can we expect from Q2 figures? The CEO merry-go-round continues on and what's happening with British Airways?

#Easyjet seems to be popular at the moment. If money talks, then as it stands, Apollo is in pole position and Castlelake seems to have been bumped (which never happens in the airline industry). Can we expect a raised offer in the next week, could another potential suitor be waiting on the sidelines, either way it looks like it’s going to be sold to someone!

The next two weeks will see the major European and US carriers publish their Q2 results. Will the airlines have managed to overcome the challenges of the last quarter, and will the full summer season give them confidence in full-year outcomes? Load factors appear to be good, premium demand strong, and fares certainly aren’t falling – it will be interesting to see who’s best placed.

The airline CEO merry-go-round looks like it’s taking a spin again with a new CEO appointed at Air Canada, leaving a gap at SAS - Scandinavian Airlines. Will the AF/KL owners recruit from within the organisation or go for some new blood? We shall see...

Are British Airways stretching their LGW B777 fleet too far? Seems that cancellations have been creeping up on BA’s leisure long-haul routes in the last few weeks, just ahead of the peak holiday season. Not ideal for those full flights and all those kids heading to see the Mouse!
