Mr Jarvis urged customers to 'book with confidence,' stating that EasyJet intends to run its ‘full summer schedule’ and has ‘normal supply visibility’ for the next four weeks.

EasyJet reported a half-year pre-tax loss of £552 million, an increase from £401 million a year ago, with summer flight bookings slightly lower than last year. The airline acknowledged that the conflict in the Middle East is causing ‘near-term uncertainty’ in customer demand, but stated it is ‘well-placed’ to manage the situation.
