Further substantial progress in merger with Go
easyJet and Go are now selling seats from a single reservations system utilising
the easyJet yield management system. The move took place on Saturday 14th
December and means that the entire booking process for flights on both easyJet
and Go can now be completed through easyJet.com or from a single telephone sales
number (0870 6000000).
The adoption of the easyJet brand represents the second major milestone on the
road to the full integration of easyJet and Go and follows the announcement, on
10th December 2002, that the two airlines are now operating under a single Air
Operators Certificate. It is expected that the third and final substantial
milestone - full integration of the two airlines - will be completed in
mid-2003.
Ray Webster, easyJet Chief Executive, said:
'Once again, we are announcing that the progress being made on the integration
of easyJet and Go is going much better than we had expected and means that for
bookings made for travel from late-March we are, to all intents and purposes,
acting as one airline.
'It was absolutely critical that we moved to a single reservations system at
this time as we wanted to be in a position to start selling seats for the Summer
flying period before Christmas and it made most logical sense to do this from
one booking system - not two.'
Notes
Bookings made for easyJet and Go flights are now subject to common terms and
conditions. Flights booked before 14th December will be subject to the terms and
conditions made at the time of booking. Customers can see full terms and
conditions at easyJet.com.
