Ray Webster, easyJet Chief Executive, said:
'We experienced a more favourable revenue environment during the month, but this
has been balanced by an unfavourable movement in the spot price of jet fuel. Our
profit guidance, stated at the time of our interim results release in May,
remains unchanged; we now expect total revenue per seat for the current fiscal
year to be slightly ahead of last year.
During the month even more passengers were able to take advantage of easyJet's
unique combination of the lowest fares to the best destinations following the
launch of six routes from our most recent base - the Swiss city of Basel.
easyJet is now selling 29 routes from Basel and Geneva, which strengthen our
position in Switzerland in the run-up to our biggest-ever Winter schedule. This
will consist of around 15 million seats between 63 airports for travel up until
the end of March 2006, including the peak skiing season.'

1.Represents the number of earned seats flown. Earned seats include seats that
are flown whether or not the passenger turns up because easyJet is a no-refund
airline, and once a flight has departed a no-show customer is generally not
entitled to change flights or seek a refund. Earned seats also include seats
provided for promotional purposes and to staff for business travel.
2. Represents the number of passengers as a proportion of the number of seats
available for passengers. No weighting of the load factor is carried out to
recognise the effect of varying flight (or 'stage') lengths.
3. Represents unaudited statutory revenue, which includes the invoiced value of
airline and ancillary services, net of passenger tax
