EasyJet

EasyJet Airline Company Limited (styled as easyJet; LSE: EZJ) is a British airline headquartered at London Luton Airport. It is the largest airline of the United Kingdom, measured by number of passengers carried, operating domestic and international scheduled services on over 600 routes across more than 30 countries. The parent company, EasyJet plc, is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the FTSE 250 Index. As of 30 September 2012 (2012 -09-30), it employs over 8,000 people, based throughout Europe but mainly in the UK.

EasyJet has seen rapid expansion since its establishment in 1995, having grown through a combination of acquisitions and base openings fuelled by consumer demand for low-cost air travel. The airline, along with subsidiary airline EasyJet Switzerland, now operates over 200 aircraft, mostly Airbus A319. It has 23 bases across Europe, the largest being Gatwick. In 2011, EasyJet carried over 55 million passengers and is the second-largest low-cost carrier in Europe, behind Ryanair.

EasyJet was featured in the television series Airline broadcast on ITV which followed the airline's operations at London Luton and later at other bases.
