Other low-cost airlines, however, are standing (29) Even so, Easyjet, which markets itself on lowest price, no catering and direct sell, has now introduced a £10 (30) to allow its passengers to (31) from one Easyjet flight to another. This is effectively a concession to the business traveller, who needs more flexibility.
Attempts by Virgin Express, Go and Debonair to move upmarket are being (32) by some as the beginning of a consolidation in the sector. With so much (33) on price, it seems likely that some players in the low-cost airline business will fail to survive.
