Andrew Harrison, easyJet Chief Executive, said:
'In November we announced our results for the year ended 30 September 2005,
reporting profit before tax and goodwill of £85m. Our guidance is that we expect
to achieve mid to high single-digit percentage profit growth for current year.
While we aim to grow our capacity, measured in terms of available seats, by 15%
this year, the first part of the year will show a lower growth rate due to the
comparison with growth in excess of 25% this time last year.
'In the month that we celebrated our 10th anniversary, we carried over 30
million passengers in a 12 month period for the first time, reflecting the
demand for low-cost air travel and our ability to meet it.'

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
