Thanks for the update.
Good to see the 5th aircraft return but I can't help feel it's not enough. EZY clearly see more opportunities from GLA than their current fleet can cater for and as a result we end up with a schedule that is all over the place. Trying to do too much with too little.
Routes that should be served year-round are seasonal (GVA, TFS, LPA), routes that need multi-daily flights are flown just once or in some cases just two or three times per week (BHD, BHX, SOU) and other routes are just all over the place (BRS) where one day there are 6 flights but the next day there is only one flight, I don't believe for a moment demand fluctuates anywhere near to that extent.
Annoyingly and predictably EZY chased Transavia and Vueling off the Paris routes and now they're back to being the sole carrier they're cutting back to their original schedule.

BRS is only one flight on a Saturday (has been this for some time) - Thursday is driven by a lot of engineering companies running either four day week or nine day fortnight or flexi time

Booked EasyJet today GLA - TFS - GLA 17th - 24th Feb. Thought basics price was excellent @ £154.00 return, although I ended up booking Speedy and all the add ons that go with it @ £221.00 return.

I just looked at CDG for random dates in May and it appears it's 12x weekly - Double daily Monday to Friday and one flight per day on Saturdays and Sundays. I guess it may go down to 8 weekly in peak season (as I think it's doing this year), but I don't think Jul/Aug next year are bookable yet.

I had checked mid-may but it appears double starts 20th May

It seems all over the place - I'm seeing 12x weekly in March (inc 3x daily on Thursdays!), then down to 8x weekly through Apr, then it appears back up to 12xwekly from May.
Perhaps theyre doing it so they can operate extra beach flights over Easter school holidays?
Either way, it arguably gives an annoying, inconsistent schedule that would probably be better with an extra aircraft.

When did they increase it in response to Transavia and Vueling? IMO those routes were never going to last and I said that at the time.

The added additional EJU capacity in September and October to flood the market with more cheap seats.
VY I will agree was doomed given the disastrous timing of their launch (French and UK travel rules were tightened almost immediately after) and then changing to Wed and Sat in the summer didn’t help them.

The stark facts are GLA-CDG & ORY down 6% April 2023 v April 2022
The 'other airport' is showing a monthly increase to CDG & ORY greater than the total passenger volume through GLA
